Amazon, Apple, Google and to some extent Microsoft understand that the future of computing is voice input, powered by artificial intelligence(AI).Children of the future will grow up in a world powered by AI.The design of this child's world will be different from our world today, as the child will learn how to communicate with a machine by the time they're two years old.
As a child's vocabulary grows into full sentences, their personal AI engine will grow up with them.These children will grow up in a world of AI where they will interact with everything using their voice.
The popularity of the garage in the United States started around 1925.Today, the necessity to design a garage for the smart home of the future is lessened as a majority of individuals will make use of an autonomous vehicle brand instead of owning a vehicle.
When you make use of a vehicle, 95 percent of the time you will not need to garage the vehicle when it is not in use.The autonomous vehicle will drop you off at your front door.Upon entry, the house will be set the way you prefer with lighting, temperature and music depending on the time of day you arrive.
The AI that powers your smart home will understand the quirks(怪癖)that make you uniquely you and will ensure that the house operates in an efficient manner.The home will always be listening and waiting for voice commands to complete tasks.
When the home becomes a smart home and society is connected with AI, our habits and lives will change.
Will you be ready for the change?
