An interesting discussion of assistance but I'm not certain of intelligence. All of the objects referenced seems to have a limited purpose. In case of object held to be sacred, that object has a specific role to play in the larger environment of humanity. In the case of intelligence applliances, I'm certainly glad mine stay put where they are and only do what they are programmed to do. I can only imagine the chaos of my intelligent tv got together with my intelligent dishwasher to discuss what to do about my intelligent mower. Oh my.
"AI" does not stand for intelligence, artificial or otherwise. It's a brand name, a marketing term promoting the progress of computer hardware and software. A "smart" TV, is a TV with the addition of computer technology.
