Although, Mark who has always dedicate himself to reading and investing in new goal every year has had a successful track record.

But this year is taking a turn around has he plans to use existing AI technology and teach it to recognize who is in a room, anticipate their needs, and control everything from the music playing to the temperature of his home.

His word “I’m very interested in using voice and face recognition to set lights and temperature as well depending on who is in what rooms, etc. For example, I like rooms colder than [my wife,] but it’s possible to just see who is in what room and adjust the temperatures automatically,” he wrote in a comment.

In November, he and his wife, Pricilla Chan, had their first child, daughter Max Chan Zuckerberg. He plans to implement a few security features as well.
“I’ll teach it to let friends in by looking at their faces when they ring the doorbell,” Zuckerberg wrote. “I’ll teach it to let me know if anything is going on in Max’s room that I need to check on when I’m not with her.”

One comment on Zuckerberg’s Facebook post jokingly warned, “Just don’t accidentally create skynet,” referring to the self-aware killer robot from the Terminator movies.

Zuckerberg reassured his followers that AI can be developed responsibly.
his words; “I think we can build AI so it works for us and helps us. Some people fear-monger about how AI is a huge danger, but that seems far-fetched to me and much less likely than disasters due to widespread disease, violence, etc,” he wrote in response to another comment.
