At CES 2026 we're touching (and tasting) all the best weird tech that's coming for us this year. That includes an electronic girlfriend, the Lepro Ami AI Soulmate, and Lollipop Star candy that plays music through your teeth. We also saw the AI Barmen, which can check your age and mix drinks, and I-Polish color-changing nails. And finally there's Lego's Smart Play bricks, which add more silly sounds to the toys.

 If you've ever bought a bag of spinach only to come home and realize you already had a bag of spinach, you may appreciate this fridge. I had a chance to check out the GE Profile Smart Fridge with Kitchen Assistant at CES and was surprised to find I kinda wanted one. To be perfectly honest, most attempts I've seen at the show to "stick some AI in it" are at best amusing but usually completely unnecessary.
Here, though, the AI has a purpose. After seeing how the autofill water dispenser worked, I asked the GE Appliance reps how easy it was to change the fridge's water filter. Jason May, a GE Appliances product management executive, walked up to the fridge's (appropriately sized) touchscreen and said "Hey HQ, where's my water filter?" (HQ is short for SmartHQ, GE Profile's assistant). Then, relying on information it had gathered from this model's user manual, the AI assistant explained exactly where to find it (in the left hand door below the ice maker). It took another rep about two seconds to pop out the filter and, justlikethat, the task was on its way to done.
As for the spinach conundrum, that's handled by a crisper drawer camera, called Fridge Focus. Each time you open the drawers, a built-in camera (that you can physically shutter or turn off in the app) takes a video snapshot of what's left when you're done. So if you're at the store and wondering how much kale you already have, you can take a peek and see.
