Cloud and smartphone big dogs battle for everyday AI
It’s one thing to connect an “internet of things” device to a network; it’s quite another to link a menagerie of devices — in the car, the kitchen, the basement, wrapped around a person’s wrist — together. This is the feat Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd, Amazon Web Services Inc. and others have set out on with their connected consumer IoT strategies. Both of said companies have smoothed icing on top of their IoT with artificial intelligence assistants through which users corral and command all devices. That’s the theory, anyway; there remain potholes in the path to perfecting the seamless consumer IoT experience.
“We’re creating one continuous and seamless experience across all the devices we have,” said Thomas Ko (pictured), vice president and global head of service innovations at Samsung.
Samsung just set a Q1 2018 window for connecting all of its TVs, refrigerators, microwave, smartphones and other devices, plus hundreds of third-party products through a common SmartThings application. The company has said that its AI assistant Bixby 2.0 built into its latest Samsung Galaxy smartphones will add the finishing touch, enabling easy voice interaction with all connected devices.
Ko spoke with John Furrier (@furrier), host of theCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s mobile livestreaming studio, during last October’s Samsung Developer Conference in San Francisco, about Samsung’s “intelligence of things” mission.
