Oh joy, another rant thread...
My take on it. The "AI" is pure marketing. all this is is programming that dynamically adapts wash time & other stuff to the programmed cycle and sensed clothing weight/type. I doubt it is much different than the earlier washers LG has made with the auto-sensing function, though given I haven't used one it's possible they have added some functionality to it to give the "AI" some meaning. I am surprised we haven't seen the same marketing to refer to dishwashers with turbidity sensors, it seems that the ability for them to "see" dirt in the water would render some sort of AI marketing but I haven't seen any yet. Heck, turbidity sensors have been around for decades now, I believe the first were on some whirlpool powerclean models though its possible other manufacturers introduced them first. I know that whirlpool also messed around with some sort of pressure based sensing on the point voyager, but I know our old kitchenaid point voyager still had what appeared to be a turbidity sensor. And of course, the new kitchenaid we have does too. The new BOL frigidaire at the house I rent over in my college town still lacks one, but being BOL that doesn't surprise me. If anything at all, this "AI" is no more intelligent than the "smart" features that have been around for a decade or more at this point.
