Smart houses will work in the future using fully integrated ecosystems in which all devices work together without problems. Instead of managing each device individually, a central system will handle everything, from security and entertainment to lighting and climate control, changing in real-time to make things more comfortable and easy. These ecosystems will be run by AI that learns how people use them and makes choices independently to improve their lives.
