I love the idea of installing high resolution cameras in the fridge to monitor the ice maker to feed into a vision model that renders digital ice to the exact position of the real ice on the fridge’s giant screen

See this is the kind of things I hope I'd be doing when I'm retired, but not when I'm shopping.
Or you could... open the door and look inside.
Sounds like you've got a lot of time on your hands
What, like a poor?
Put a servo on the door and a camera on the front. Train a vision model to recognize when your eyes are looking at the door and automatically open it for you.

Another camera inside will detect when you are done and close it.

Think of all the gaze and marketing data we can extract and sell to third parties!
You mean like… a transparent door? Is that the joke?
