The Evolution of Home Control: From Simply Smart to Truly Intelligent Living
Home control has come a long way—from basic remote access and rule-based automation to AI-driven systems capable of understanding context, preference, and intent. In this session, Alex Capecelatro explores the technological and philosophical shift from “smart” homes that respond to commands to intuitive environments that anticipate needs and adapt in real time. Attendees will gain insight into how advances in voice, machine learning, system architecture, and privacy-first design are shaping a new standard for intelligent living—where the home becomes a seamless extension of its inhabitants. Drawing on real-world applications and emerging trends, Alex will outline what it takes to design, deploy, and scale AI-driven home solutions that compel the clients of our industry.
