一 | 本周,超过18万人聚集在拉斯维加斯参加CES 2019消费电子展。可以想象的是,他们会被这场一年一度的奇幻小玩意和未来发明的展览弄得眼花缭乱。今年,这个41年历史的盛会比以往任何时候都要盛大,4500家参展商涌入拉斯维加斯会议和世贸中心,离著名的拉斯维加斯大道赌场不远。 Kamal Haasan has never been the sort of public figure who settles for the easy answer. True to form, the actor turned parliamentarian offered a strikingly direct response at the Hortus Art and Literature Festival in Kerala when he was asked about the political landscape ahead of the 2026 Tamil Nadu assembly elections. For those expecting a sharp remark about Vijay and his new party Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam, Kamal steered the conversation to a space far removed from personality driven rivalries.The newly elected Rajya Sabha member stated firmly that Vijay is not his political opponent and that his principal adversary is caste discrimination. Speaking to an attentive audience, he said his chosen enemy is casteism, which he described as a violent and deeply embedded force that must be addressed swiftly and without hesitation. His tone was measured, but the urgency in his words made it clear that this was not a line designed for applause. It was a declaration of the direction he intends to take as his political presence gains renewed momentum.The question was prompted by discussions around Vijay’s political entry and the perception that his party may emerge as a significant challenger to the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam in the coming cycle. Kamal, however, refused to frame the narrative as a direct clash between two actors who transitioned into public life. He reminded the audience that his entry into the Upper House followed an understanding with the DMK during the 2024 general elections. His remarks carried an undertone that suggested political battles rooted in personality are less important to him than the long struggle against social injustice. Kamal on Vijay: Respect, Distance, and PatienceWhen asked if he had advice for Vijay, Kamal responded with humility. He said he is not in a position to advise anyone and added that he himself rarely benefitted from advice in his youth because it never arrived at the right time. He called Vijay his brother and said that experience is the best teacher, one that arrives without bias and leaves behind lessons that no mentor can replicate. It was a thoughtful response, one that signalled camaraderie but also hinted at the individual journeys both men are undertaking. Vijay’s rise in politics has been under intense public scrutiny ever since he announced plans to step away from cinema after completing Jana Nayagan, due for release on January 9. Market watchers expect his transition to politics to accelerate once the film hits theatres.For Kamal, the political road ahead is both familiar and refreshed. His Makkal Needhi Maiam, founded in 2018, has built its own share of loyal supporters over the years. His new role in the Rajya Sabha adds another layer to his political identity, giving him a national platform while he prepares for the upcoming state elections. Yet his message in Kerala suggested that he is intent on focusing on a broader reformist agenda rather than a headline chasing rivalry. A Busy Slate for Two Titans of Tamil CinemaOn the film front, Kamal Haasan continues to juggle an eclectic mix of projects. He was last seen earlier this year in Thug Life, directed by Mani Ratnam, and is now collaborating with action choreographer duo Anbariv for their directorial debut KH237. He is also producing Rajinikanth’s Thalaivar 173 under the Raaj Kamal Films International banner, a reunion that has already stirred excitement among fans.Vijay, meanwhile, returned to screens in 2024 with The Greatest of All Time, which sparked a conversation about his evolving screen choices before he embarks on a full time political career. All eyes are now on Jana Nayagan, directed by H Vinoth, which is positioned as his final film before he shifts focus entirely to public life.As the state gears up for an intense electoral cycle, Kamal Haasan’s comments stand out for their clarity. In a landscape that often defaults to personality clashes, he has chosen to position his battle against a deeper, structural issue. Whether this approach will reshape the narrative around the 2026 race remains to be seen, but his words in Kerala have certainly set the stage for a different kind of conversation.Also Read: South Indian Legends Mourn Dharmendra。从机器人面包店到跟随主人在机场转悠的智能手提箱,全世界的公司都在这个热的展览上展示他们的产品。然而,技术产业可能已经陷入令人担忧的僵局。图:一个智能手提箱在CES跟踪一个参与者超过十年(来源:法新社)。

二 | 智能手机一直是该行业的“摇钱树”,但随着全球智能手机销售停滞不前,手机制造商的生活越来越糟。在过去的几个月里,苹果的市值蒸发了3000多亿美元,落入了全球市值最高的圣地。目前,一些有希望的新产品,如无人驾驶汽车,离成为主流还有很长的路要走。对于CES公司来说,下一个希望可能是智能家居。近年来,智能家居被认为是下一代的出口,可以刺激新一轮的新产品消费。越来越多支持语音交互的智能家居产品出现在CES展会上。他们似乎能满足人们的所有需要。

三 | 然而,到目前为止,这项技术还没有成功实施。今年,智能家居的主题在灯火通明的展台和展览之间穿梭,比以往任何时候都更加根深蒂固。许多科技公司已经推出了他们自己的未来家庭版本,配备了语音互动电视、恒温器、音响系统,甚至还有智能厕所。但消费者真的准备好了吗?他们是否会像对待智能手机一样,以同样的热情和购买力来接受智能家居的创新?CCSInsight(一个多年来一直被嘲笑的伪智能家居)首席分析师本•伍德对此持怀疑态度。他说,将互联网连接到家用电器的想法并不新鲜,而且网络冰箱在消费电子产品展览会上被嘲笑了十多年。”我们想知道[这些技术]何时会登陆并变得更加实用。”甚至Twitter也有一个账户来取笑每一个显然毫无意义的网络设备。在CES的第一天,一家146岁的公司Kohler推出了一款智能马桶,其中一款提供了Alexa语音控制,旨在提供“完全沉浸式”的浴室体验。图:科勒在CES上展示的智能厕所(来源:科勒)只是众多被嘲笑的智能产品之一。此外,今年又出现了一种猫食设备,它只能通过宠物的面部识别、睡眠监控机器人和一个名为MUI的初创公司推出的“网络板”来开门。

四 | 图:穆伊的网板(来源:美联社)巨头,不同的产品不能互相连接,虽然智能家居产品看起来越来越奇怪,但它已成为互联网巨头争夺消费者的下一个重要战场。很多CES的展位都在谈论他们的智能助手,比如亚马逊Echo和Alexa语音助手、谷歌之家和谷歌助手。去年,亚马逊说它有20000个智能产品连接到它的Alexa系统,这意味着用户可以通过语音控制各种设备。

五 | 据电子营销人员称,今年将有7400万美国人使用智能音箱,比去年增长15%,亚马逊占市场的63%左右,而谷歌占31%。但是亚马逊和谷歌之间的战争正在升级。

六 | 亚马逊声称已经售出了一亿多台Alexa设备,而谷歌回应说,超过10亿台设备与谷歌助手兼容(尽管这主要是由于Android智能手机与谷歌助手兼容)。

七 | 图:亚马逊Alexa家庭水桶设备(来源:techcrunch)需要关注智能家居的竞争,这样它们就不能互相连接。而这些不能互相连接的智能设备,对用户来说可能是一场噩梦。

八 | 在未来,他们可能会造成比他们解决的更多的问题。开发人员可能已经开始认识到这一点。CEA负责人本·阿诺德(BenArnold)在CES开幕式上表示,企业面临的一个大问题是“我们如何才能更好地连接这些设备?”在英国,智能扬声器的使用也在迅速增长。

九 | 根据YouGov的一项调查,智能扬声器的使用在2018年6个月内翻了一番。

十 | 到目前为止,这些智能扬声器的主要用途是播放音乐、使用语音控制来回答问题和大声阅读新闻。然而,四分之一的受访者表示,他们购买扬声器是为了与其他设备进行互动。大型科技公司也注意到了这一点。

十一 | 2018年2月,亚马逊以10亿美元收购了智能门铃制造商Ring。它的智能门铃包括一个摄像头和一个智能手机应用程序,可以连接到亚马逊的Alexa系统,让亚马逊洞察数据和物流交付的数百万个包裹。这家总部位于西雅图的零售巨头并没有就此止步。

十二 | 9月,亚马逊推出了一系列Alexa配件,包括亚马逊品牌产品,包括语音助手。它包括一个声控微波炉,一个智能插头和一个低音炮。

十三 | 不仅是亚马逊,谷歌还通过其附属公司Nest(包括智能恒温器和安全摄像头)扩大了其智能家居帝国。虽然苹果没有参加消费电子展,但它已经与许多智能家居合作伙伴,如制造智能照明产品的wemo和制造智能锁的kwikset,为记者安排了简报。图:苹果在CES上做了一个巨大的广告(来源:彭博社)。安全、隐私和易用性已成为最大的症结。尽管大型科技公司乐于看到用户挂断产品以帮助收集数据,但并非每个人都愿意这样做。

十四 | 隐私安全问题也被认为是智能家居发展的主要症结。”萨里大学的计算机专家艾伦·伍德沃德教授说:“攻击呈指数级增长。”在过去的几年里,人们发现智能厕所容易受到简单的蓝牙攻击,攻击者可以操控厕所自由喷水。许多物联网设备缺乏标准化的安全性,默认密码很容易猜测。更不满意的是,许多智能家居设备有缺陷,故障和断开问题。

十五 | 想象一下,由于Wi-Fi故障,煮一杯咖啡并关闭机器是多么痛苦。易用性是关键,正如许多技术人员在CES上展示产品时发现的那样,说起来容易做起来难。由Palo Alto Innovation初创公司制造的智能传感器昨天在现场罢工,多次失败。这个功能可以让用户同时关闭所有设备。MUI的网络板也遇到了类似的问题。示威者多次按下按钮关闭网络灯泡。

十六 | 他们都失败了,最后放弃了。科技新闻网站Gizmodo的一名记者试图住在一个完全智能化的家中,记录哪些数据很容易被盗。然而,比隐私收集更烦人的是,房子里的所有设备都不可靠。”克什米尔·希尔写道:“我以为这是一个关于隐私的故事,但恰恰相反,我发现住在简陋的智能家居里很烦人。”此外,网络设备会受到数千英里外服务器波动以及随之而来的任何问题的影响。简言之,尽管像亚马逊回声这样的智能扬声器即将成为主流,但在消费电子展上展示的各种智能家居设备中,哪些将真正进入消费者的生活,仍有待观察。
