This new model, set to be unveiled at CES next year, emphasizes AI features more than previous models, which focused on Internet of Things integrations. The 2024 model is seen as the centerpiece to Samsung’s other AI kitchen products and the wider Samsung ecosystem. Also expected next year is the 2024 model of Samsung’s cooktop, the Anyplace Induction Cooktop, which includes a slide-in range and seven-inch LCD screens for viewing recipes from the Samsung Food app.
