Many tasks are getting easier, products are more efficient and AI is enhancing daily lives in unexpected ways. Here are some recent AI advances that may be improving your life.
more freedom in controlling their machines, and help those machines apply more precision in how they handle different types of clothing. For example, LG Electronics introduced an AI-powered TurboWash 360 Front-Load Washer/ Dryer Pair. The Ultra Large-Capacity washer assesses fabric type, weight and softness to choose the best washing motions for a superb clean. The advanced spinning algorithm measures load size to minimize vibrations, noise and spin time. LG’s user-friendly ezDispense feature takes the guesswork out of detergent dosage by automatically adding the exact amount of detergent and fabric softener needed for each load. Because the washer and dryer both utilize AI to learn from usage patterns over time, settings continually optimize for the ➝8

Today’s homes are built tighter and more sealed, which means they can trap toxins from daily living - such as cooking, cleaning, pets and more - inside. Adding skylights that can open is a simple home renovation project to improve fresh air flow, helping rid indoor air of pollutants. Additionally, studies show that exposure to natural light helps to sync your circadian rhythm, allowing for better sleep at night.
meditating is a great way to prepare yourself for a successful day. Open the blinds or curtains on your windows and skylights to let in early morning light and help you feel invigorated and refreshed.

Using ThinQ AI and powered by the Œ± (Alpha) 9 Gen 3 AI processor, the latest LG OLED TVs bring picture and sound quality to a whole new level - and are used for much more than watching shows. These TVs apply a deep learning algorithm to recognize content source quality, then determine the best method for optimal picture quality among four genres: movie, sports, standard and animation. The new processor finely adjusts the picture, taking into account the room’s ambient conditions to offer the best levels of screen brightness and contrast, using its understanding of how the human eye perceives images.

Thanks to LG’s AI Sound Pro, LG OLED TVs analyze and classify the audio of content among five categories - music, movies, sports, drama or news - for clearer voices and richer, more textured background sound. The latest lineup of TVs also matches perfectly with LG’s stylish 2020 sound bars, which are future-proofed to help you create seamless visual harmony in any room.

The ability to communicate, record and enjoy pictures and videos, plus livestreaming shows and movies on-the-go has reached new levels of speed and quality, especially with the revolutionary new 5G connectivity. You can also use its five cameras to create and share high-quality content. With three rear cameras and two front cameras, you can capture truly original selfies, pictures and videos with rich detail. Artificial intelligence may still sound like science fiction, but the truth is, everyone is using it more and more each day. AI technology is helping people perform tasks and enhancing everyday life in so many ways - and there’s no telling what the future may bring.
