One of the rare cases where this is a serious option: just don't buy it. People say that for phones that spy on you, but that's ridiculous because that is quite hard for some people. This is not. Use a regular toothbrush. Duck tape a vibrator motor to the handle if you really feel like that helps. You don't need the ai, and it is unlikely that you will only ever be able to buy ai toothbrushes.
Yeah I just attach my manual brush to my LadyLove9000 and it gets my teeth way cleaner
I was thinking a vibrator from a device with haptics, but if that's what you want, go for it.
Well, it's just something that everyone has a few of lying around the house already
Hopefully they don't creep up on all toothbrushes like how Smart TVs replaced dumb TVs.
