<p><b>What is AI speaker?</b></p><p>AI speaker is the operating elements of smart home system. Smart home system consists of hub, which is connecting platform of internet of things of home appliances. AI speaker delivers commands of human needs to home appliances.</p><p>It is well served in many house and used by public. Also, it has social functions. </p><p>Let's see several types of AI speakers!</p><p> </p><p><b>Type 1 : Smart home system</b></p><p>Generally, AI speaker of Smart  home system performs roles about controlling home appliances. </p><p><i>Necon clova friends mini</i> can control lamps, TV, boiler, and air conditional and act as an unmanned security guard by device lineup ( for example, door sensors and motion sensors). we can turn on and turn off TV and air conditioner anytime, anywhere. In hot summer, we can turn on air conditional before we enter our house and turn it on and off remotely using the reservation system. These are performed by AI speaker. We say certain commands to AI speaker and it operates.</p><p> </p><p><b>Type 2 : Care services for the elderly living alone</b></p><p>KT announced that it has strengthened its service by combining ABC(AI, Big data and Cloud)-based digital platform with AI care services that support care for the elderly living alone. If the elderly living alone shout " Genie, help me" , <span style="color: #000000;">They can be rescued 24 hours a day through KT's phone booth and 119 phone service, and can be automatically contacted by a mobile phone registered as a guardian.</span></p><p><span style="color: #000000;">In addition, KT provides services to relieve loneliness through notification of medication time, health care through cognitive impairment prevention games, conversation with AI conversation partners, and Genie Music. Each local government is making artificial intelligence speakers and distributing them to local residents to improve the lives of the elderly living alone.</span></p><p> </p><p><b>Type 3 : <span style="color: #000000;">Interactive Artificial Intelligence Psychological Support Services</span></b></p><p><span style="color: #000000;">The Korean Society for the Prevention of Violence and Abuse (KAVA) has launched an interactive artificial intelligence called "Joan." Joan is a psychological eval‎uation tool that uses artificial intelligence service NUGU to add counseling technology from the KAVA research team.</span></p><p><span style="color: #000000;">The artificial intelligence naturally communicates with children and captures daily stress signals, including signs of suicide and abuse.</span></p><p><span style="color: #000000;">According to the CDC, the suicide rate of teenage girls aged 10 to 14 in the U.S. has increased 151 percent since 2009, the highest in 19 years because of Netflix programs. Children and teenagers are familiar with mobile phones. As the factors affecting their mental health are increasing, programs like Joan are used to examine children and adolescents.</span><br><span style="color: #000000;">In fact, 83 percent of elementary school students who took the test said they could confide in Joan. AI psychological support services are well used to lower psychological services fence to general families and will provide regularly to check mental health issues and safety of children and adolescents.</span></p><p> </p><p><b>So I think..</b></p><p><span style="color: #000000;">I searched various cases of using artificial intelligence speakers and found that artificial intelligence speakers can be used in various ways. It is surprising that it is being used as a kind of psychological solution for children by relieving loneliness and emergency situations of elderly people living alone as well as part of smart homes. Artificial intelligence speaker is a great way to communicate with us, so I hope they will be used in various ways to provide convenience and help to many people and the socially disadvantaged.</span></p>
