If my #instantpot is smart enough to know that my food is burning, why isn't it smart enough to prevent that from happening?
@lucifargundam If my food is burning, I obviously want to turn itself down / off.

You assume technology has common sense.
Technology cannot think for itself.
Many people lack common sense.
We have a way to go before smart-cookers become smart-chefs. They are not the same.
@lucifargundam But the people who made it had common sense. I'm not saying it should know how to cook by itself, but "food burn = turn off" is well within the realm of possibility.
@ahi technically, it is. I know this because I have a lot of experience burning things in my instant pot.
The burn notice is just a temp sensor on the bottom, and when it goes off bc the bottom is too hot, it turns off the heating element. If you've got it pressurized, I have found that it turns back on once the bottom cools a bit and things keep cooking as normal. If it goes off while you're trying to get it pressurized, you're screwed.
@ahi It doesn't have hands to stir the pot. You need to combine it with one of these https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_stirrer
@ahi
it doesn't know what you want, just what is going on.
