    This is why my ‘smart’ TV will never, ever be connected to the internet. It’s an LG so I would expect it to not be onerous, but it’s often nagging me to connect to my router for stuff like AI tools.

    No thanks. You’re smart enough already for my use, TV! HDMI only please.

      I’m a firm believer that smart should be self contained. If a device needs the internet, it’s not that smart since it has to rely on outside sources to work properly.

        Although I agree with the sentiment. It’s like saying people that research are not smart.

        They should all just be thinkers like Einstein, let some other dummy find the proof.
