Philips Hue takes smart lighting experience to a completely new level. Among the new software updates announced at the IFA technology fair, the feature named Custom AI Behaviors stands out and offers users a unprecedented level of control.

The main advantages of the new feature:

  • Natural language commands: You can tell the light behavior you want to Hue app with the normal speaking language
  • Conventional automations: You can just go beyond color change or stage creation, design more sophisticated lighting scenarios
  • AI supported mind: The application understands your natural language using artificial intelligence and converts it to special automations
  • More extensive integration: New connection options are added with other smart home devices like Sonos

This update shows that smart home technology is more accessible and intuitive. No need technical knowledge to write complex automations anymore; just what you want to say. For example, you can tell commands directly, such as “Open slow lights at 7 hours”.

This move of Philips Hue is a good example that shows AI plays an increasingly important role in the smart home ecosystem and how it can simplify user experience. Home automation is now becoming a technology that everyone can access.
