Microsoft has sneaked into Samsung’s teles. This has been announced by both companies, which have reached an agreement so that Copilot is part both of the future Smart TVS and the company’s monitors. It is an interesting announcement not so much for what it means for these two companies, but for the tendency to which it points.
Why is it important. Here Microsoft achieves a small triumph for its artificial intelligence solutions, and does so by the hand of a giant like Samsung. But here what attracts attention is that First great integration of AI in products that until now did not want to know much about it.
Talk without stopping with TV. Our televisions are perfect candidates for adapted systems specifically to them, and this is a striking step in that direction. The command continues and will continue to be better in many cases (button to rise volume instead of “rises the volume a bit”, for example), no doubt. However, The Chromecast or the Fire TV Stick They already showed us that saying “reproduces the trailer of ‘Superman'” or “reproduces ‘Stranger Things’ in Netflix” is also a very powerful option.
An AI to go further. Those functions of the traditional voice attendees of the teles are interesting, but having a model of AI as a co -pilot will allow that experience beyond and Interact with TV in a more versatile way. You can ask for time and visual information will appear accompanying audio information, for example, or by a movie and a card with its IMDB or Rotten Tomatoes qualification will also appear.
Where did I stay with this series yesterday? And of course, we can ask us to recommend a movie – “What mystery film must be fun?” – Or that gives us related information about it – “What more movies has made the director of this film? We can talk with Copilot Normally on any subject, because after all, it is a generative AI and are designed for that purpose.
The speakers, the next border. There is another hardware element that awaits the arrival of AI as a May water: smart speakers. That intelligent have never had much: Satya Nadella, CEO of Microsoft, already said years ago that these devices “They were more silly than a stone“. The option of being able to talk to these products when they are enhanced by a generative model such as Chatgpt or its rivals is very promising, and the curious thing is that at this point we should already have a great protagonist in this field.
What vadis, Alexa+? Amazon is undoubtedly the great absentee of the AI segment, and for months now Alexa+ presentedits new platform with generative AI models that in theory Ibn to flood your family of Amazon Echo devices. The deployment, however, is being infuriatingand the project still has a very limited reach, we assume that because they prefer to go on safe.
The privacy dilemma. It is inevitable to think that one of the possible risks that will involve the use of these devices with this technology will be the invasion of our privacy. We already know How do TVS manufacturers spend them With its users in this section, and the traditional smart speakers have already built many suspicions about it In the past. In addition, where is the limit between a useful and an annoying or invasive presence in the living room?
The battle to conquer your lounge started has. It seems inevitable that AI ends up being an integral part of our televisions as it begins to be in our computers or mobiles. Smart speakers are specially prepared so that in the future we talk more than ever with them, but will there be other hardware solutions that go further? Domestic robots, maybe? There is in this segment a huge challenge in many sections – non -invasive experience and, as far as possible, private – but also an extraordinary opportunity. And Microsoft, for the moment, has seen it.
