My post: Artificial Intelligence Discussion
The audience of this article is technology enthusiasts, consumers interested in the latest AI products, and technology non-believers. It is to express the overutilization of AI in numerous consumer items and to doubt the usefulness and relevance of such innovations (Clayto, 1). The author’s tone and attitude are skeptical, and he laughs at himself as he explores CES and the world of AI with particular skepticism.
The author provides concrete examples related to CES, including an AI pillow, vacuum, and washing machine to support his purpose. This strategy uses logos since it gives specific instances and explains AI’s working or non-working aspects. Therefore, by revealing the somewhat fuzzy and, at times, overstated AI characteristics, the author challenges the credibility of these products. The skeptical approach and factual evidence make the idea that there is too much hype on AI more credible.
It appears silly when companies try to incorporate and market AI products while using the term rather flexibly. Although many AI applications are unique, numerous products use the AI tag to secure funds and gain recognition (Clayton, 4). This trend can create a false sense of the value of actual Artificial Intelligence advancements. It might result in consumer cynicism, stressing the importance of defining what constitutes Artificial Intelligence.

Clayton’s target audience is interested in AI and electronics. Groups that may share these interests may include internet consumers, tech enthusiasts, and industry professionals. The article examines the mass use of AI in all sorts of everyday products and questions whether this integration is useful or a redundant gimmick. The tone of the article is skeptical and uses humor to engage the readers to question the claims of tech companies.
Clayton uses ethos and logos to serve his message. Ethos is established by citing his experiences as a reporter in the tech industry for BBC. His logos come from presenting his examples of AI products from CES. The AI pillow and the AI washing machines are his main examples and he questions the necessity of whether or not it’s useful for a washing machine to learn from the clothes.
Yes, the marketing and production scheme to integrate AI into unnecessary products is ridiculous because of the claims that AI needs to fill this niche without evidence of the necessity or existence of the niche. Clayton addresses skepticism for the vagueness of these definitions and claims to attract buzz and attention. The uses of AI in these products only serves as a buzzword to bring in interests to a product that is highly misleading to consumers. The hype around AI being applied to these products whose AI functions to do not actually serve any purpose to ordinary examples devalues the use of AI.

1. The audience of this article might be people who are interested in technology and how it is advancing. There are many purposes to this article but I would say the main three are to inform, educate, and bring awareness to this issue. They are doing these three things by first informing the audience what these AI devices are then they are educating how they are being used. Last, they are bringing awareness but suggesting we as a society might need to take action on this. I would say the tone of this article is information as I felt more educated on the topic after reading this article.
2. The author uses ethos to support their purpose. For example, the article mentions a quote by Eric Siegel who is ” a machine learning expert” and stated “AI suffers from an unrelenting, incurable case of vagueness,” (Clayton). By quoting Eric Siegel, they are using credibility by an expert to help their purpose of the article.
3. I believe that the integration of AI is getting a bit silly. There are many devices being created that us humans can do on our own. I think that one way we can use AI is to help elderly people who might not be able to complete day to day tasks.
