A fridge with WiFi that talks back to you has just been invented

Incredible.

All we need, really.

If you’ve ever stood in front of your fridge and thought, ‘wow, I really wish I had somebody to talk to right now,’ never fear because you are not alone.

Being alone in your house with just a fridge and a room full of people can be one of the loneliest feelings in the world.

It’s a good thing then that Samsung has only gone and invented a fridge that’ll talk back to you when you ask it things.

Oh, and it also has WiFi too.

Genius.

According to Engadget, the Family Hub 3.0 refrigerator is the tech giant’s latest invention that uses specialised software and personalised responses to tell its users all about news, groceries, and lots of other things.

It even allows people to control a security camera from the fridge itself, while also acting a control for lights, temperatures, and other stuff.

It can plan your meals, give you information about allergies, and even tell you when you’re running low on food.

Pretty neat.

Samsung’s website describes the fridge as:

“A refrigerator with a Wi-Fi enabled touchscreen that lets you manage your groceries, connect with your family and entertain like never before.”

However, the product could also be very useful for people with disabilities, allowing them to manage their groceries and general kitchen space more easily.

A price for the fridge has not yet been set but we’re going to go ahead and assume that it’s going to be pretty expensive.
