About the time I got my first computer in 1984 or 1985 I saw a movie where a deaf man programmed his computer with TTS to help him order pizza. His project grew until his home was fully automated and the house's AI become somewhat sentient and took over.
I would have to say this movie probably drove my desire to program AI, NLP and create home automation software more than any other. But I can't remember the name of it!!! I have searched the internet with no luck. Perhaps it was just an episode of some series like the Outer Limits.
So as I was doing research, I thought I would start to compile a list of movies and TV shows with automated homes. I figured it would be entertaining to look at these old sci-fi shows and see how much of it is possible with today's systems.
Please see my list so far in the next message. I am including the summaries of the shows, but I am only commenting on ones that I remember well. If you have seen ones that are on the list, please feel free to post a review of the HA system in the show. I will update the master list as stuff comes in.
