# Digit the Laundry Boss: AI Takes Over the Web Summit
At this year’s Web Summit in Lisbon, things took a rather interesting turn as a humanoid named Digit strutted onto the scene, sorting T-shirts instead of trying to dominate the world (for now). While Digit showcased some impressive AI skills—thanks to Google’s shiny new Gemini model—concerns over job security, safety, and the environmental impact crept into the conversation.
