ChatGPT-like tech is being incorporated into smart home devices, enabling better communication
- Tencent-backed Tuya has incorporated AIGC technology into its new developer platform to help programmers write code faster
- AI has been a key trend for the smart home industry when it comes to helping devices talk to each other and communicate with users better
As the artificial intelligence (AI) craze generated by ChatGPT continues to gather pace, the Internet of Things (IoT) industry is also embracing AI-generated content (AIGC) to improve smart home devices and product development.
ChatGPT-like technology will “create [many] new ways for interactions” between users and smart devices, and enable products like speakers to serve the needs of users better, said Chen Liaohan, founder and president of Hangzhou-based IoT platform company Tuya Smart, at the company’s developer conference in Shenzhen on Thursday.
Tuya, the New York-listed company backed by Chinese tech giant Tencent Holdings, has also incorporated AIGC technology into its new developer platform to help programmers write code faster and speed up the development process of smart devices for clients, according to Chen.
However, Chen noted that ChatGPT-like services are still in the early stages of development with many regulatory uncertainties, and so the company will only explore new opportunities that are in compliance with policy.
The rise of AIGC, the technology behind OpenAI’s chatbot service ChatGPT, has taken the tech world by storm with promises to improve productivity and the interaction between humans and machines.
