Sci-fi master Ray Bradbury remarkably predicted today's AI smart home ecosystem in a short story written 76 years ago.
The story is set on August 4, 2026. It depicts robot mice cleaning the house like Roombas, a kitchen that autonomously makes pancakes, and self-setting entertainment rooms. These wild imaginations from the past are rapidly becoming reality with the current AI boom.
