Chapter 686 Intelligent Voice Assistant AEEIS (Ask for a Monthly Pass!)

Monday, October 17.

Pei Qian came to the company to sit for a while as usual, but no one came to the door.

He casually swiped through the webpage, and suddenly remembered something. He quickly took out his phone and checked Ma Yang's Weibo.

As a result, Lao Ma's Weibo was not updated for the whole weekend!

Pei Qian was a little puzzled, what does this mean, the old horse forgot?

Going out for the weekend? Didn't log in to Weibo at all?

But thinking about it, it's impossible. Although Lao Ma has always been passionate about doing things for three minutes, this time is too short, and the three minutes haven't passed yet. There is no reason for Lao Ma to give up so soon, right?

Then why didn't you post a new Weibo for two days on the weekend?

Pei Qian was afraid that there was something tricky here, so he hurriedly called Lao Ma.

"Hello? Brother Qian?" The old horse's voice came from the other end of the phone, very awake, not like falling asleep.

Pei Qian is very clear that Lao Ma is not a person who likes to sleep in late, and he can successfully get up in the morning when there is class in the winter.

Lao Ma is a hard-working bastard, so it is obviously suspicious that he didn't post a second Weibo all weekend.

To Ma Yang, Pei Qian stopped playing around and asked directly, "How much money have you sent out so far?"

Ma Yang: "I haven't paid a penny yet."

Pei Qian froze for a moment: "Why?"

Ma Yang said as a matter of course: "This is the dream fund I won with great difficulty. It is your affirmation of my hard work, Brother Qian! I have to see messages or reposts that really have dreams before I can make money. I can't just make money!"

Pei Qian was a little dumbfounded.

It turned out to be the reason!

After Ma Yang posted that Weibo, he has been reading comments and reposts. Once he sees a more dreamy message, he will consider sending money.

But his Weibo has only so many fans, not many people saw it, and those who saw him didn't believe him, thinking that he was lying, even those who were half-believed didn't write about their dreams seriously.

Therefore, none of these messages could catch Lao Ma's eyes, so he didn't call these people for a penny.

He doesn't spend money, and others think it's a scammer making a gimmick, let alone write a review seriously.

So it dragged on for the whole weekend.

Pei Qian couldn't help but sigh with emotion, as expected of an old horse, I really have you!

Pei Qian asked curiously: "Then why don't you emphasize it to everyone and let everyone write some more dreamy comments?"

Ma Yang: "That won't work! I'm an official and serious internal employee of Tenda, so I can't lose my status! Besides, I give money. If I post another Weibo emphasizing this, it won't look like I'm kneeling to give them money Is it? Of course not!"

"Believe it or not, I'll see who the first lucky person is."

Pei Qian gave a thumbs-up silently, and said, "Yes. In ancient times, there was Shang Yang who migrated to establish trust, and now there is Ma Yang who spread coins on Weibo. They are all heroes among men."

When Shang Yang moved to Muli, many people gathered to watch, but no one really did it, because no one believed it.

For some reason, these two things have a little bit of the same effect.

Of course, Pei Qian couldn't tell whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

There is no risk if the old horse can't become an Internet celebrity, but the money hasn't been spent!

So Pei Qian didn't know whether to support or oppose this behavior.

After thinking about it, let the old horse decide for himself!

"Well, you are doing the right thing, keep sticking to your own ideas!"

After hanging up the phone, Pei Qian checked the time and prepared to go to Outu Technology.

In the last cycle, Pei Qian spent a lot of money on Outu Technology, mainly spent on the newly established imaging and software laboratory of Outu Technology.

In this cycle, the previous research of Outu Technology must produce a product, otherwise it will violate the system rules.

Considering that the time in this cycle is relatively tight, Pei Qian feels that he still has to go over and take a look to ensure that there are products that can be produced, and that he can't make a lot of money.

...

Ollu Technology, conference room.

All the key employees of Changyou and Outu Technology arrived and began to report to work.

"Mr. Pei, according to your previous work arrangement, we have two main tasks until January next year."

"The first is to update the feature-rich version for otto os, which includes many practical system functions, especially the adjustment of the camera system in the imaging laboratory."

"For the new camera system, we have prepared some optimization algorithms, including beauty effects for users when taking selfies."

"Moreover, we have reached a strategic cooperation agreement with Xunke Technology to develop our own intelligent voice assistant based on their artificial intelligence voice assistant, which should be updated to the new otto os in time!"

"You know, currently only Pineapple's flagship phone is equipped with this function. If we can be the first to update it to the otto E1 phone, it will definitely be very beneficial to enhance our brand value!"

"Secondly, we plan to create a smart speaker product for the new smart voice assistant. At present, this field is still blank in China. If we can seize the opportunity, it will definitely be good news for enriching our product line! "

A question mark slowly floated above Pei Qian's head.

?

AI voice assistant?

No, there shouldn't be this item in the previous development plan, right?

Moreover, this thing shouldn't appear so early in China, right?

Pineapple’s latest flagship mobile phone can use voice assistants because Pineapple directly spent 200 million dollars to acquire an artificial intelligence company whose main business is text chat services, and then cooperated with the world’s largest voice recognition manufacturer to realize voice assistants. recognition function.

And that's just happened this year.

Because of the different languages, Pei Qian originally estimated that it would take at least five years for similar artificial intelligence voice assistants to appear in China.

But according to what Chang You said, this company called Xunke Technology seems to have been doing research in this area. It already has a relatively mature Chinese intelligent voice assistant. On this basis, it can be used directly with changes!

Pei Qian suddenly felt a sense of crisis, and thought of the special reward during the settlement.

Could this be what the system calls a random technological breakthrough?

Domestic technology in this area is five years ahead of schedule? Directly on par with top foreign companies?

Pei Qian suddenly panicked, but after thinking about it calmly, he felt that things were not that bad.

These artificial intelligence voice assistants were quite mentally retarded when they first came out. To say that artificial intelligence is flattering them can only be regarded as artificial mental retardation.

It will take at least another three to five years for the technology to mature, so don't be too nervous.

Of course, Pei Qian did not dare to take it lightly.

After all, this is a new outlet. Although it is artificially retarded, it is still very attractive to consumers who have never seen the world. It is not ruled out that they will buy it like crazy.

Thinking of this, Pei Qian tentatively asked: "That is to say, there was no artificial intelligence voice assistant in the original development plan? Is it a temporary decision to add it after seeing the technological breakthrough of Xunke Technology?"

"If that's the case, I think it's best to take it easy."

"There is still a lot of work in other areas. I am afraid that you will not be able to arrange your time, or it will affect the completion of other work."

Chang You smiled and said, "President Pei, don't worry, it's definitely not!"

"Before we originally planned to develop software and hardware together, and wanted to release a new phone. But Mr. Pei, you said at the time that only software should be released, and the mobile phone should be released once a year, so we cut off all hardware research and development. plan."

"So, I just had some free time! It's very suitable to use it as an artificial intelligence voice assistant belonging to otto os!"

"So, Mr. Pei, your thinking is right. You have to leave some room for R&D work, otherwise it will be difficult to seize this kind of opportunity!"

Pei Qian: "..."

That's embarrassing.

Could it be my fault again?

Every time this happens, Pei Qian wants to go back to the previous cycle and beat himself up, but he can't wear it.

It seems that this artificial intelligence voice assistant must be done.

Then we will enter the next topic.

Find a way to make this thing fail!

In the current market environment, there are smart homes. For example, when Pei Qian asked Liang Qingfan to decorate the sloth apartment, the lighting, glass, etc., could be intelligently adjusted through the LCD panel.

But these things are actually quite rare. Because of the high cost, they are not practical for many people, so they are rarely installed in home decoration.

If Pei Qian hadn't wanted to raise the rent of the sloth apartment, he wouldn't have thought of installing these things.

The same is true of artificial intelligence voice assistants on mobile phones. They are not all cheap. Only the flagship mobile phones of certain manufacturers such as Pineapple mobile phones are equipped with them, which is a trend.

If there is another smart speaker, maybe it can really sell for a lot of money!

Pei Qian thought about it carefully and came up with a countermeasure.

But... where to start?

Let's start with its name!

Pei Qian pondered for a moment, then asked, "So...does this artificial intelligence voice system have a name?"

Chang You was stunned for a moment: "Oh, not yet. How about, Mr. Pei, can you give me one?"

"I think Mr. Pei's names are very quintessential!"

Pei Qian nodded: "Then it's called: Ayes."

"The English name is AEEIS."

"Ayes..." Chang You read it twice, "Is there any deep meaning?"

Pei Qian explained: "It is the abbreviation of 'An Efficient and Effortless Intelligent System', A.E.E.I.S."

Chang You suddenly said, "'An efficient and labor-saving intelligent system'? Good name! Very appropriate!"

"As an intelligent voice assistant, its function is to help us save time and effort, and improve efficiency. The name is really appropriate!"

Pei Qian smiled slightly.

In fact, the deep meaning of this name is the abbreviation of "An Elegant and Easygoing Intelligent System", that is, "an elegant and easygoing intelligent system".

I understand what it means to be elegant and easy-going.

As for why this name was chosen, of course it was because Pei Qian had already figured out how to arrange it.
