I don’t have a wifi active washing machine, but I have a dryer on wifi, and to answer your question, I have ADHD and frequently forget there’s even laundry. Like as a concept.

So I turned on my dryer’s wifi and now when it’s done, I get a notification. Which allows me to come downstairs and fold what’s in there (and put the stuff from the washer into the dryer).

Before I would turn on the dryer (and washer) and then have go wash clothes again because they went sour on me. So wasteful! Made me ashamed! Hopefully I won’t go blind to dryer notifications…
