Samsung Working on AI-Powered Washing Machines That Automatically Detect Dirt, Fabric, and Detergent Needs

The South Korean electronics giant Samsung is going to revolutionize the home laundry process with its AI-powered washing machine, which is likely to be released in mid-2026. This cutting-edge appliance will automatically identify the type of fabric, determine the optimal amount of detergent and water, and identify dirt through cameras installed within it. The machine is based on a GPT model of AI, which will make the laundry process simpler and the cleaning performance better. At present, this innovation from Samsung is at the proof-of-concept stage; it has a progression from its latest launches of AI-enabled washing machines like 9KG Front Load models in the Bespoke AI Laundry Series launched in January 2025 with features of AI Energy Mode and AI Ecobubble technology. It was going to cost more than ₹1 lakh as premium features and sophisticated technology are always priced that way in India.
