Tech CEO Announces 'AI-Powered Toaster' That Burns Toast Intentionally For 'Character Building'
The toaster costs $499 and gives you 'emotional growth through burnt carbs.'
Harvey McSilicon, CEO of BurnTech Inc., unveiled the 'Resilience Toaster' at CES today. 'Burnt toast builds character,' McSilicon declared. The toaster uses AI to determine the 'optimal level of disappointment' for each user. 'It's about growth,' McSilicon said. Early testers report being 'traumatized' and 'eating cereal instead.' The toaster has a 'sarcasm mode' that says 'you're welcome' after burning your bagel. McSilicon has already raised $47 million for the 'Healing Oven' — an oven that undercooks food so you 'learn patience.'
