Amazon Technical AnalysisAmazon looks like it is going to be a little bit softer at the open during the trading session, as we are now between the 50-day EMA and the 200-day EMA. This is a market that I think probably just grinds back and forth, and much like Apple does, Amazon has an earnings call here in the next week or so, and that obviously will have a major influence on where we go next.Right now, the markets are being knocked around by the headlines with Greenland and tariffs, so I wouldn’t read too ...

01 自从智能手机开始有"AI"这个概念以来，"情境感知"就成为了不少机型最明显能够让用户体会到AI"存在 感"的重要功能。 这是什么概念呢？简单来说，真要论技术的"高端性"，在手机上用AI增强拍照，或是用AI智能体去控制应 用的自动化执行，当然是更复杂、也更能体现厂商实力的方式。 但问题在于，绝大多数的用户其实并不会那么纠结手机的"拍照画质"。至于用AI去"自动购物"、"自动刷游 戏"之类的功能，虽然看起来很高大上，但同样很难真正融入普通用户的日常使用需求中。 相比之下，比如每次回到家时手机自动连上家中的WiFi，睡前手机自动打开"勿扰模式"，在通勤的路上自 动提示交通信息，在收到订票短信后自动建立日程提醒之类的"情境感知"功能，虽然在技术上其实要简单 很多，但对于绝大多数用户而言，反而就成为了如今智能手机上"最实用"、"感知最明显"的AI特性。 那么问题就来了，这些"情境感知"功能现阶段又是否存在着一些特别突出的缺点，或者说难以解决的"技术 问题"呢？ 别说，还真有。那就是它们和第三方App之间，往往会显得有些"水土不服"。 这是什么概念呢？ 打个比方，当用户在电商App上买了商品后，手机往往可以抓取到商 ...
