It's wild just how much they're trying to shove AI down our throats.

No, don't even buy LG.

I bought a dumb LG panel for my bedroom and I had to buy black enamel paint to go over the status LED. When the panel it's off, the indicator LED it's BRIGHT. BLUE. BLINKING. And it's so powerful that I still see it because the light leaks from the small plastic vents. I also had to additionally insert a Shelly 1pm smart relay in the socket and program it with the logic "from 8pm to 8am if power usage is under 5 watts, cut the power; repeat the check every minute"

When the panel is on, instead, the status LED it's off ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ

I can turn off the light in the menu on mine
