【Secret Confessions (2025) No Label Episode 45】

Samsung is Secret Confessions (2025) No Label Episode 45set to debut a new, AI-powered refrigerator at CES 2025.

The tech company announced the plans in a press release, weeks ahead of the annual, major tech conference in Las Vegas. Samsung said the new fridges will use what it's calling AI Hybrid Cooling technology. Basically, the AI-powered tools will work to anticipate temperatures changes — when unloading groceries, for instance — and keep the refrigerator properly cooled.

Wrote Samsung:

"The AI Hybrid Cooling technology combines a highly efficient compressor with a Peltier module, which is a semiconductor device that achieves cooling by harnessing the temperature change arising from the flow of electric current. The introduction of the Peltier module enables the refrigerator to function like a hybrid car, by using two power sources together only when needed to efficiently cool the inside of the fridge."

The end goal is a more efficient fridge that keeps food fresher for longer.

"Since refrigerators run 24/7, we placed a strong emphasis on developing a cooling system that meaningfully enhances energy efficiency for users," said Jeong Seung Moon, head of the R&D team for digital appliances business at Samsung, in the press release.

• OpenAI now lets you call ChatGPT on your phone
• HDMI 2.2 set to be announced at CES 2025
• Bring the party to your kitchen with LG's MoodUp refrigerator
• That viral black plastic kitchen utensil study was overblown thanks to a simple math mistake.

So it's not exactly a fridge with a ChatGPT assistant, but rather — at least, according to Samsung — a fridge that should keep food fresher while using less energy.
