Read MoreGE Appliances offers users the ability to generate custom recipes based on food in their kitchen with Flavorly™ AI powered by Vertex AI.
New features introduced via GE Appliances' SmartHQ consumer app generate custom recipes and provide a new conversational interface for appliance use and care
LOUISVILLE, Ky. and SUNNYVALE, Calif., Aug. 29, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- GE Appliances (GEA), a Haier company, and Google Cloud today announced an expansion of their partnership to enhance and personalize consumer experiences with generative AI. GE Appliances' SmartHQ consumer app will use Google Cloud's generative AI platform, Vertex AI, to offer users the ability to generate custom recipes based on the food in their kitchen with its new feature called Flavorly™ AI. SmartHQ Assistant, a conversational AI interface, will also use Google Cloud's generative AI to answer questions about the use and care of connected appliances in the home.
"This collaboration is a good example of how we are transforming our entire business landscape, from product design and manufacturing to customer interaction," said Kevin Nolan, president and CEO of GE Appliances. "Our goal is to be 'zero distance' from our consumers, ensuring we always deliver products and experiences that truly resonate. Our partnership with Google Cloud is a prime example of our commitment to providing consumers with the seamless, personalized experiences they desire."
GE Appliances' SmartHQ app includes two innovative features using Google Cloud's generative AI:
GE Appliances gained access to Google Cloud's cutting-edge AI tools and developed these innovative products quickly to serve the growing needs of its consumers. GE Appliances also plans several updates – for example, a review feature for Flavorly AI will be launched later in the fall, allowing users to rate recipes and enhance the AI model further for consumer benefit.
"We are seeing a variety of brands across industries invest in generative AI to help them create deeper, more meaningful connections with their customers," said Thomas Kurian, CEO of Google Cloud. "GE Appliances is another great example of this. Already renowned for delivering high-quality appliances to homes around the country, GE Appliances will use our AI technology to help create highly personalized, helpful, and easy-to-use digital experiences for consumers."

Embark on a culinary journey through the ever-evolving world of digital leadership with our third edition of the CIONET Cookbook: Recipes for Digital Success. Unveiling the intricate trilemma faced by today’s Master Chefs, our trailblazing European CIOs address a challenge at the nexus of customer interests, digital transformation strategies, and IT modernisation. Their secret? Synchronising the gearing between customer, business, and technology to create a frictionless movement through the digital landscape.
The CIONET Cookbook uses the analogy of a five-star restaurant to explain the importance of optimally integrated technology, with the CIO as Master Chef. In order to provide the best service to its customers, a top restaurant must have the right atmosphere, an inviting menu, a well-equipped kitchen, talented and committed front-of-house and kitchen staff and smooth-running processes that ensure an enjoyable experience for diners.
The evolution of AI is comparable to that of IT, but it’s happening much faster. As with IT in its early days, AI is becoming deeply embedded in almost every business function. Amara’s Law also applies here: we tend to overestimate AI’s short-term effects and underestimate its long-term impact. This makes it essential to embed AI across your company in a structured way.
This report provides a comprehensive overview of the event's insights and reflections from industry leaders, along with actionable takeaways for IT professionals aspiring to reach leadership positions.
