For most of us, a washer is a washer, a dryer is a dryer, and a fridge is a fridge. Pretty straightforward, right? As it turns out, your appliances aren’t justappliances anymore. You can use them as technological nexuses for everything from playing music to adjusting the temperature. We can’t deny that smart technology is transforming how we use appliances. Let’s check out how below.
Remote Control
There are many reasons to install smart appliances in your home. One reason is that, in some cases, you can control your appliances with a simple tap on your smartphone or tablet. You can hook up Alexa, Google Assistant, or Siri to initiate just about any function you wish. Want to preheat the oven to 400 degrees? Want to turn on a coffee maker or start a washing machine? You can program all these functions with the press of a button. You can extend times on a washer and dryer or stop and start your dishwashing cycles. The possibilities are endless, and you can take advantage of them.
Real-Time Notifications
In the past, we’d have to set timers on a watch or alarm to remember when a wash cycle was ending. More recently, we had to estimate when a coffee maker would go off or perform some math to determine when the oven was preheated and fully prepared for food. That isn’t the case anymore. Now, with any number of smart devices, you’ll automatically know when your coffee is ready, your washer has finished a cycle, or your oven is fully preheated. Some notifications can even alert you if something is wrong, like if the washer has stopped before the cycle ends or if a child has left the fridge door open. This is a key way smart technology transforms how we use appliances: you’ll know everything that’s happening in real time.
Smart Updates and Diagnostics
You aren’t alone if you hatethe waiting process for updating your hardware. But what if I told you that these smart appliances could do it automatically while retaining functionality? If there’s a problem with an appliance, your smart technology can automatically notify your manufacturer, and they’ll give you a call so you can troubleshoot the issue together. If it’s within the warranty, the repair tech could come with all the parts needed to repair the device. Overall, appliances are becoming smarter daily. With technology accelerating rapidly, ensure you’re poised to take advantage of it.

SECRETARY-GENERAL/FRANCE
Earlier today, the Secretary-General arrived in Paris where, tomorrow, he will attend the Artificial Intelligence summit, co-hosted by French President Emmanuel Macron and Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India.
He is expected to tell leaders gathered there that the growing concentration of AI capabilities in the hands of a few companies and countries risks widening global inequalities and deepening geopolitical divides.
He will underscore that we must prevent a world of AI "haves" and "have-nots," and he will call on AI leaders to pool expertise and cooperate with each other. He will emphasize that it is in the interests of government and technology leaders to commit to global guardrails.
While in Paris, he is also expected to meet with President Emmanuel Macron and other world leaders during a working dinner later today.
He will also have a bilateral meeting with the French Foreign Minister, Jean-Noël Barrot, prior to attending the AI summit.
The Secretary-General will leave Wednesday evening for the African Union summit.
YEMEN
Following the recent detention by the Houthi de facto authorities of eight additional United Nations personnel, including six working in Sa’ada governorate, which has impacted the UN’s ability to operate, the Secretary-General has instructed the agencies, funds and programmes of the United Nations, in the absence of the necessary security conditions and guarantees, to pause all operations and programmes in Sa’ada governorate, Yemen.
This extraordinary and temporary measure seeks to balance the imperative to stay and deliver with the need to have the safety and security of the UN personnel and its partners guaranteed. Such guarantees are ultimately required to ensure the effectiveness and sustainability of our efforts.
This pause is to give time to the de facto authorities and the United Nations to arrange the release of arbitrarily detained UN personnel and ensure that the necessary conditions are in place to deliver critical humanitarian support guided by the principles of impartiality, neutrality, independence and humanity.
The United Nations remains fully committed to assist the millions of people in need across Yemen.

At a Senate Banking Committee hearing on Tuesday, Senator Elizabeth Warren argued America’s largest banks lack crucial oversight now that employees at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau have been told to halt all work. Warren pressed Fed Chair Jerome Powell to confirm the regulatory gap left if the CFPB does not perform its functions. However, Powell noted in an earlier exchange with Warren that the Fed still has "some jurisdiction" with regard to consumer banking examinations.

BBC News Video: Lawyer in Saudi trans student's suicide note had embassy links, BBC finds | BBC News
A final message posted by Eden Knight, a popular online Saudi transgender woman, raised questions across the world.
Through access to private messages and a year-long investigation, the BBC has uncovered what happened in the final months before Eden Knight took her own life.
Eden's final note, viewed by millions, said a lawyer in the US - where she had been trying to claim asylum - had persuaded her into returning home to a family and country that would not accept her identity.
The BBC World Service has identified this man as Bader Alomair, who has worked at the Saudi Arabian embassy in Washington DC, evidence suggests.
Mr Alomair has not responded to the allegations raised in the BBC's investigation.

US President Donald Trump has met King Abdullah of Jordan at the White House.
Speaking about the current Gaza ceasefire situation, Trump said he did not believe Hamas will meet the Saturday deadline to return Israeli hostages.
"I have a Saturday deadline, and I don't think they're going to make the deadline personally," the president says, adding: "I think they want to play tough guy, but we'll see how tough they are".
Earlier, Trump said "hell" would breakout if Hamas did not return all hostages by 12pm on Saturday.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said the Gaza ceasefire will end if Hamas does not release Israeli hostages on Saturday.
Hamas said on Monday it would not release three Israelis as planned this weekend, because of alleged Israeli violations of the ceasefire.

His friend and former colleague Mark Clifford has written a new biography of Lai, now a figurehead for Hong Kong's democracy movement.
We spoke to Mark and Chloe Cheung, a young Hong Kong pro-democracy activist now based in the UK.
Last year the Chinese government offered a one hundred thousand pound bounty for her arrest for collusion with foreign powers - the same charge faced by Jimmy Lai.
