Mark Zuckerberg to show off his home control AI next monthAugust 30, 2016 - 11:32 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg seems to have built the artificial intelligence he said he is going to use to control his house, Engadget reports. He's almost ready to show it to the public. "I got it to the point where I can control the lights, I can control the gates, I can control the temperature," he said at a Facebook Q&A in Rome this week. "It's getting there." Zuckerberg says he hopes to have a demo of the project available sometime next month, and credits a lot of the AI's success to his engineering team at work. "It's awesome because I get to interact with all these Facebook engineers who are doing this awesome AI work in speech recognition, in face recognition," he says. "I programmed it so now, when I walk up to my door, my gate, I don't have to put in a code or something like that to get in -- put in a key -- it just sees my face and lets me in." Even so, the AI isn't quite ready for primetime: Zuckerberg says the house only responds to his own voice, much to his wife's disappointment. "I'll give her access once I'm done."
