View Full Version : Would You Use a "Smart" Toilet?
GentlemanJim 12-14-2022, 01:41 AM Would you pay to own a disease-detecting “precision health” toilet (https://med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2020/04/smart-toilet-monitors-for-signs-of-disease.html) that can sense multiple signs of illness through automated urine and stool analysis?
It’s a smart toilet. But not the kind that lifts its own lid in preparation for use; this toilet is fitted with technology that can detect a range of disease markers in stool and urine, including those of some cancers, such as colorectal or urologic cancers.

GentlemanJim 12-14-2022, 09:49 AM Of course if everyone had a "smart" toilet, there would be no need for the "what is the last thing you ate?" type threads, because we would all already know. ;)
Caroline13 12-14-2022, 01:30 PM No I would Not. Anything in the Smart world, to me, is Dumb.

What if the toilet made nutritional recommendations based upon it's analysis?
IE: "Grapes seed extract supplement is needed"...that sort of thing? :D

GJ: No way, pathetic that real humans won't use their own brains.
Grape Seed Ex is not a deficiency type supplement.

A'hhhhh, but who should I trust? You, ...or my toilet? :D
Considering what they willingly let us put into them, can any toilet really be called smart?
GentlemanJim 12-14-2022, 05:45 PM ditto phones

^^^ That was a good one, made me LOL! :lol:
Smart Toilet sounds a bit like Martha Stewart's "Pretty Litter" for feline cat toilets.
GentlemanJim 12-14-2022, 07:25 PM Seems like this would be a huge privacy risk, waiting to bite us at our most vulnerable.....

Bubanyan 12-15-2022, 08:56 AM I could try it, why not :D
Dude111 12-15-2022, 09:32 AM Considering what they willingly let us put into them, can any toilet really be called smart?Ya I dunno how they can stand the taste :D
GentlemanJim 12-15-2022, 10:22 AM I seldom go to the doctor, because I hate "well intentioned" bad news. So the thought of having my very own in-house critic, seems unworth whatever the cost might be.
People who can never get too much out of a doctors visit because they enjoy the attention.....well such a toilet might be right up their alley
