Meta 一项新公开的专利申请显示,公司正在布局可识别人脸并记录行为的摄像系统。该系统不仅能判断画面中是谁,还能识别其动作,并按查询自动整理成视频片段,供手机或头显调取。

这份申请由 Meta Platforms Technologies 提交。文件目前处于“准备审查”阶段,属于 2022 年母申请的延续版本,距离正式获批或产品落地仍有一段距离。

系统可按人物和动作整理视频

按照专利描述,摄像头会先采集实时或历史画面,再交由 AI 系统处理。第一层是人脸识别,用于确认画面中出现的是哪一位具体人物,而不只是检测到“有人”。

随后,另一层动作识别模块会分析人物行为,例如拿起物品、离开房间或多人聚集。系统最终会把识别结果整理成独立媒体文件,并附上人物标签、动作标签,或同时附上两类标签。

支持自然语言检索片段

专利文件显示,这套系统的一个重点是检索方式。连接设备可以通过查询请求相关画面,系统再从已标记的视频片段中组合答案,而不是让用户手动拖动时间轴查找。

图示还显示,相关处理既可在服务器端完成,也可在设备端执行。专利中还提到自然语言理解流程,用于把用户提问转化为片段检索和生成结果。

隐私争议再次升温

外界关注的焦点不在于摄像头本身,而在于它可在当事人未主动同意的情况下,通过人脸识别标记特定个人并记录其行为。这也是美国民主党参议员此前质询 Meta 智能眼镜时提出的主要担忧之一。

相关批评认为,若设备具备实时识别陌生人身份的能力,可能增加跟踪、骚扰等风险。Meta 与 EssilorLuxottica 合作推出的 Ray-Ban 智能眼镜,近年已因公共场所拍摄和私人影像审核问题引发争议。

Decrypt 在报道中指出,这次公开的仍是专利申请,而不是已上线功能。专利公开意味着相关构想已进入记录,不代表该功能已经完成开发或获得批准。

Anthropic Reported to be in talks to acquire Decart: Behind the $6 billion deal is a competition for "computing power efficiency" among AI companies
Anthropic is in talks to acquire artificial intelligence startup Decart, with the reported transaction amount being around $6 billion. The news was initially disclosed by Bloomberg, and Axios followed up with a report on August 13th. The most important point to note here is that both parties are still in the negotiation phase; the transaction has not been completed, and the negotiations may also end. The $6 billion figure refers to the potential size of the deal as mentioned in the reports, not the actual acquisition price that has been paid, nor should it be considered the final valuation of Decart.

Model replaceability, tool pluggability: DeepSeek pushes the competition between Agent from "brain" to "operating system"
On August 14th, DeepSeek open-sourced the Agent framework DeepSeek Harness. Instead of creating a closed product that can only connect to DeepSeek models, they designed components such as models, tools, storage, and sandboxes as plugins, and released them under the MIT license. Developers can integrate models from other companies or replace the execution environment and memory system. For a company that is famous for its foundational models, this choice is quite significant: DeepSeek is shifting its competitive focus from "providing the smartest brains" to "controlling how agents complete tasks."
