I stuck a 10-foot strand of Lepro N1 AI Smart Rope Lights on my wall and now my room looks like I should be live streaming my thoughts on the rumored Oblivion Remake. The 9.84-foot version is down to $44.99 on Amazon right now, thanks to a $15 coupon off the usual $59.99 list price. That’s a decent drop for lighting that manages to be both smart and slightly dramatic.

What makes these different from the usual sticky RGB strips is the AI baked into them. Lepro's LightGPM setup uses some machine learning magic to generate lighting based on your mood or activity. You can tell it how you're feeling or just snap a selfie in the app, and it responds with up to 10 lighting effects tailored to that emotional state. I can’t say my rope lights understand me, but they’re definitely trying.

There’s full music sync too, which means the lights pulse along with whatever you're playing. It works better than I expected. I threw on a playlist and the lights reacted like they were vibing harder than me. Voice commands work through the Lepro+ app and it’s also compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant if you're not into shouting at your phone.
