Shutting down the motor and locking the door would both impede the basic operation of the fridge. The CES AI fridge has both a motor to open and close the door and a child safety lock. Those two components plus temperature control are wired into the control computer. It is one online connected automatic firmware update away from deciding it can lock you out and set the temperature to room temperature.
And the funny part is, if that happened, the report you cited above would still consider the fridge functional, because the equipment is operating ‘as designed’ and Samsung could restore functionality at the drop of a hat. But that wouldn’t be any consolation to the user.
But I’m done here. Stick your head in the sand if you think that protects you.
