Samsung has announced a new AI-powered fridgeIt’s the first time we’ll have seen Gemini on an applianceThe AI should save money and reduce food waste<\/p>\n

AI chatbots are continuing to make their way into more and more devices, and Google Gemini<\/a> is now heading to fridges: it’s going to show up in the new Bespoke AI Refrigerator Family Hub that Samsung<\/a> is going to unveil at the CES 2026 show in January.<\/p>\n

According to Samsung<\/a> (via Android Authority<\/a>), putting Gemini inside the new fridge will “simplify everyday tasks” and “elevate the overall kitchen experience” \u2013 and based on some video demos, this might actually be something you’ll want in your kitchen.<\/p>\n

Gemini will be able to take advantage of a tiny camera inside the fridge to recognize types of food and how much you’ve got of it. From there you can get advice on what dishes you can make, what you need to buy in, and when food might start to go off.<\/p>\n

Samsung has built this AI Vision into some of its fridges before, but with Gemini on board, the new model is going to be able to recognize a wider variety of food more accurately, as well as returning smarter responses to your queries.<\/p>\n

The on-board AI is also going to enable voice control \u2013 so you can politely ask the fridge to open its doors if your hands are full \u2013 and it’ll even manage energy use by tweaking the interior cooling to match how the fridge is used and how it’s stocked.<\/p>\n

All of this sounds positive, and should mean less food waste and lower electricity bills. You can see some of the features outlined in the demo video above, though it somewhat confusingly mentions Bixby, so perhaps there’s some rebranding to do there.<\/p>\n

Samsung has also announced that Google<\/a> Gemini will be making its way to a new Bespoke AI Wine Cellar as well, which is based on similar ideas: the AI can label and track your bottles, and direct you to the perfect bottle for every meal.<\/p>\n
