They just have to add useless shit into something like a fridge and make everything "smart". The profit margins must be so slim on any kind of standard house appliance. They can't just seel a fridge that just keeps your food cold, isn't too expensive, noisy, etc... because most of the offer that and they need this summers buzzword to stand out, or even to please the investors.

The consumer buys that shit though.

We can create demand for normal stuff. "Do you have one without AI? I do not want AI." Retailers take note.
