Reminds me of the Juicero, which took a fairly basic concept (validating a QR code and squeezing a packet of mushed up fruit pulp so juice would come out) and still comically failed because, even with all their meticulously machined gears and cogs, it did a much inferior job to a human hand and a few conveniently shaped kitchen utensils. Never mind that an internet connected, custom-engineered juice press was a bad idea in the first place. It was still out-manufactured by simple tools like a garlic press, or a little metal thing you twist your fruit on top of. Or a blender.
