Smart Thermostats

I’ve heard about these newfangled smart thermostats, but I have my doubts.
For the thermostat to be smart enough, it would need to be able to respond to the same question in different ways, depending on who is asking it.
As an example, if I walk into a room and ask the thermostat “Why is it so cold in here?”, the thermostat should give me an answer (“your son left the window open”) and not change anything.
On the other hand, if my wife walks into a room and asks the thermostat “Why is it so cold in here?”, the thermostat should know just to turn up the heat a couple degrees.
I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot; I wish that you were cold or hot.
