Many of us are guilty of jumping into an Uber after having one too many drinks. 我们中的许多人都曾为在喝了太多酒之后跳上一辆优步出租车而感到内疚。 But that could soon be about to change. 但是这种情况可能很快就会改变。 According to a new patent application, Uber is working on a way to let its drivers know exactly how drunk passengers are before they pick them up. 根据一项新专利申请,优步公司正在研究一种方法使司机在去接乘客之前可以明确了解醉酒乘客的状态。 The AI system identifies a user's level of intoxication based on how they're holding their phone. 这种人工智能系统可以根据用户拿手机的方式来确定其喝醉的程度。 It also looks at how many times they tap on the Uber app, exactly where they tap, their walking speed and how long it takes for them to request a ride. 它还会检查乘客点击了几次优步应用软件,他们点击了哪里,他们的行走速度以及他们打车用了多长时间。 It then identifies if they're exhibiting 'uncharacteristic' behaviour and gives drivers the option to deny them a ride. 然后它会确认他们是否表现出“反常的”行为并给予司机拒绝搭载的选择权。 Uber is also exploring the possibility of matching inebriated passengers with drivers who have had relevant training to deal with drunk behaviour. |
