In a quirky fusion of technology and personal finance, a Bengaluru resident has created an artificial intelligence powered bedroom light system that shifts colours based on his stock market performance on Zerodha. The user, identified as Pankaj, showcased the amusing setup on X, instantly grabbing the attention of internet users.
Pankaj posted, "My zerodha stock portfolio now controls my bedroom lights. It turns red when I lose money." His light setup visually communicates the market mood and his personal gains or losses. When the portfolio is in profit, the room glows green. When the market dips and losses appear, the light shifts to red.
