Chapter 44: Regret
It stands to reason that although the principle of robot acoustic synthesis is simple, it is not a simple matter to really do it well, which involves computational semantics, sentiment analysis, logical and statistical machine learning, signal processing, large-scale computing and cloud storage response, NLP, and so on.
Microsoft's Cortana has the strong technical support behind Microsoft Research, but even so, Cortana's human voice still hasn't reached this level.
Yan Zhiwen knew this deeply, and it was he who felt unbelievable, not only because of the accuracy of this voice recognition, but also because of the terrifying robot sound.
"Coco?"
Cautiously shouted again, Yan Zhiwen tried his best to keep his voice steady.
"Hello, Coco has always been here, may I have any questions?"
It's OK that this so-called personal voice assistant really realizes complete voice natural control, and it doesn't have to be activated again at all...... What Yan Zhiwen cares about the most is that this voice assistant seems to be able to connect with the context and store the previous information?
To achieve complete voice control, in today's era of voice technology gradually maturing, although there are still technical difficulties, but it is not insurmountable, for example, Apple's Siri can be regarded as a disguised realization of full voice control.
But the real surprise of this technology is perhaps something that most people don't realize...... No, it's not entirely certain.
Yan Zhiwen's mind spun around in his mind, hesitated, and asked, "What is this registered account?" ”
"The registered account is provided by the developer XEON, the purpose of which is to provide you with independent private services, and you can synchronize your information, contacts and ...... under your account after registration."
This kind of registration is not much different from what ordinary mobile phone manufacturers provide, but Yan Zhiwen cares about the back.
"After you set up a separate account, I can remember you later!"
Remember me?
What the hell is this?
Yan Zhiwen was a little stunned and asked, "What do you mean by remembering me?" ”
"Specifically, with your operation, Coco can remember your operating habits and preferences, and can provide you with more appropriate services in the future......"
Yan Zhiwen reacted, his facial muscles twitched slightly, he couldn't tell what he was feeling, at least in half a minute, he took a few deep breaths, he wanted to catch his friend, and asked a few words fiercely: What are you kidding? Who do you think you are? Dare to brag about this cowhide? Do you want to be a big data personal assistant that Microsoft, Facebook, Apple, Google have always wanted to do?
That's right, what to remember yourself, listen to this explanation, it is nothing more than the future vision proposed by Microsoft and other companies, after AI reaches a certain level of intelligence, it can carry out separate services for users, with the role of cloud computing and big data, personal assistants will become the most intimate housekeepers for users. Maybe you can't remember your birthday, you can't remember your friend's birthday, don't worry, your personal assistant will remind you in advance, and you don't have to set the reminder yourself.
Maybe you didn't know it was going to rain tomorrow, but it doesn't matter, the personal assistant will automatically remind you to add clothes and bring an umbrella.
Or maybe you like to eat a certain food and leave a record, so when you pass by a certain place, the personal assistant will also remind you that there is a favorite food.
In this way, this is the personal assistant under the combination of cloud computing and big data, which will completely change the future life of human beings......
But Yan Zhiwen doesn't have to think about it, he knows how complex and terrible this technology is, even if it is a large company with strong funds, it can only work hard in this direction, with this friend of his, the tone is really big enough, what does it mean to remember me? If you can really fucking remember me, I should be scared to pee.
Well, maybe it's just a rudimentary module?
I can't tell if it's ridicule or something else, if he sees it anywhere else, he will only think it's a manufacturer's propaganda means, for example, a certain manufacturer advertises what space water cooling, it sounds lofty, but in fact, what's going on, you will know if you buy it, but that's it.
But this "Coco" also has this flashing bag......
Everything seems suspicious, and some of the technologies even surprise him, at least from this whole process of natural voice control, continuous execution of commands, accurate voice recognition, robot voice, these four technologies, each of which alone is enough to be promoted as a highlight of the manufacturer's publicity...... By the way, the manufacturers here do not include those in China, but refer to companies like Microsoft and Sony that have deep heritage and technical talents.
“……”
Gradually, the ridicule that was still a little bit in his heart dissipated, and Yan Zhiwen couldn't help but be a little silent when he thought about the four techniques he had enumerated.
"It's outrageous, I'm going to have sleeping pills again tonight."
Yan Zhiwen rubbed his temples vigorously, and whenever he felt a headache, he would make such a relieving action. It's just that the action that can quickly relieve the headache in the past is not very effective at this time tonight, the head is still painful, and the heart is still tangled.
No matter how much headache and entanglement, he had to admit one thing, the friend who nodded his head and made something really attracted his interest.
The last time there was such a strong interest, it was Apple held the iPhone 4 conference, and after that day, it is difficult to find many electronic products and systems that can make him feel so surprised and suspicious.
"So...... Coco, sign me up for an account. ”
"Okay, I'll take you to the account registration screen, please enter your username and password......"
"The username is 'Old Thief in the World', and the password is 5876942558749."
Staring at the phone screen tightly, with his hands firmly on his legs, Yan Zhiwen was about to say the username and password in an ordinary tone, without the usual intention of moving his fingers to enter the username and password.
Just like when entering the WIFI password earlier, the registration interface of the mobile phone suddenly filled the input box with an asterisk, and Coco's soft voice appeared again: "Please confirm that the user name is 'Old Thief in the World', and the password is 587......"
That's right!
No mistakes!
Yan Zhiwen couldn't help but feel sorry that he had accurately identified it, should it be so accurate?
"Confirm!"
Turning in circles, I finally entered the mobile desktop of the system.
"This ......"
Typical flat design, the UI interface is clean and neat, and it seems extraordinarily concise, and there is not much surprising about it. This made Yan Zhiwen slightly disappointed.
After experiencing the previous things, although he didn't say it, Yan Zhiwen's interest in this system has also reached its peak, and he thought that it was so interesting and surprising in the front, so the real UI and system will definitely be surprisingly bright, right?
It's really surprising.
Surprisingly simple.
Frowning, Yan Zhiwen slid his fingers on the screen, quickly browsed the UI, and then clicked on a few settings and built-in apps, and tried the following functions.
After a while, he suddenly sighed, lowered his hand and gently leaned back on the chair, closed his eyes, and had mixed thoughts in his heart.
How to say it.,This system is not very scum.,On the contrary,It's obviously a number of improvements on the basis of the official package.,It's also cleaned up and solved some bugs.,It's worthy of an excellent flashing package.。
But it's just the word "excellent".
The word "excellent",It can only be talked about in front of such as ZTE and some miscellaneous mobile phone manufacturers,If it is in front of MIUI,Although the latter is not as simple and beautiful as this system,But MIUI's complicated functions can meet the needs of any Chinese people,And in comparison, this system is obviously too concise,So that many functions are not。
For example, MIUI's yellow pages recommendation and search, various built-in life applications, etc., are all convenient for the experience settings of Chinese people.
So if he really wants to vote, Yan Zhiwen himself will definitely not hesitate...... More than 99% of users should invest in MIUI, and another 1% are users who are tired of MIUI.
It's so concise, quite concise...... Quite ......
Wrong!
It's too wrong, it shouldn't be, this feature is too simple, right?
He snapped his eyes open, as if aware of some possibility.
