Amazon’s Ring unveils AI alerts for smart homes security 

Amazon’s Ring has introduced a new feature that uses artificial intelligence to send users notifications about unusual or suspicious activity near their homes.

The AI analyzes motion detected by Ring doorbells and cameras and generates brief text summaries, which are delivered as alerts to users’ phones.

Ring says the summaries highlight only the primary subject that triggered the alert and are designed to be “intentionally concise,” allowing users to quickly assess the urgency of the situation.

The feature is launching in beta starting Wednesday for premium Ring subscribers in the U.S. and Canada.

The tool marks part of a larger push into artificial intelligence by the Amazon-owned doorbell maker, Ring CEO Jamie Siminoff said in a statement.

“We are just starting to scratch the surface of AI,” said Siminoff.

While Ring is best known for its video doorbells that capture activity outside homes, the company has broadened its product range to include items like floodlights with built-in cameras, alarm systems, and flying security drones.

“I see unlimited potential for new experiences we can invent for our neighbors,” Siminoff said.

Several tech companies have integrated generative AI into their products, only to face challenges and flaws with the technology.
