They have such absurd functionalities too.

- You might start a smart dishwasher remotely. But who is going to load it with dishes? And if the dishes are already loaded, why not just set a delayed start?

- Same with washing machines. Oh, they can also tell me when the detergent is running out, but I will see it during the next washing cycle.

- A smart oven can prepare warm food before you get back home from work. Assuming you want to keep your food in an oven at room temperature for the entire day.
