News Summary

Samsung has announced a multi-year partnership with Instacart to enhance its line of smart fridges with advanced AI capabilities. The 2025 Bespoke refrigerator models will incorporate Samsung’s proprietary food recognition technology, AI Vision Inside, alongside Instacart’s product-matching API. This integration allows the fridges to identify up to 37 different food items as they are loaded and unloaded, automatically adding items to users’ Instacart shopping lists. This innovation is part of Samsung’s vision for a ‘smart kitchen’ experience, which aims to simplify grocery shopping and meal preparation. In addition to suggesting groceries, the fridges can recognize when items are running low and allow users to order directly from their fridge screens. The new features will be showcased at CES and are expected to be available by mid-year.
