Love Fantastic Art VR girlfriend was approved "wearing too exposed"
In the VR helmet launched by Baidu's streaming media video platform Ai Qi Yi, artificial intelligence virtual girlfriend "Xia Wei Er" (English nickname "Vivi ")" Wear too exposed, "" frivolous behavior "and other issues, Iqiliki apologized on the other day, saying the product has been off the shelf, and said the future will be the product to be modified.
Among the "Vivi" upgrades released by iQiyi, the application scene is designed in a spacious and luxurious office. The secretary type "Vivi" is dressed in OL uniform, tall, sweet, and tempting. In addition to answering simple questions from users such as time, weather or scheduled TV shows, you can also interact with users in multiple parts of the skin's "skin": the user through the hands of the air mouse, to touch the "Vivi" Different parts of the body, "Vivi" will make a different response. The WSJ on Wednesday questioned whether Iqiyi's introduction of such a sexy woman in a VR helmet that "exposes and behaves in a frivolous manner" is a mistake in encouraging women in the workplace to view themselves as sexual objects.
In a statement, IK said: "Aiqiyi has noticed the media's concerns and has taken the relevant products offline and further revised them, and we apologize for any concerns that may arise from the products."
The Wall Street Journal reported that users praised Vivi's ability to flirt and "perform sexy dances," one of which showed a user touching the "Vivi" chest. The South China Morning Post introduced the product in a recent story and cites a fan comment that his relationship with "Vivi" is "like a domineering boss and his secretary."
In fact, it is not uncommon to find women as virtual assistants. Most other companies have adopted this approach, which is not unrelated to the gentleness and virtuous nature of women. However, "Vivi" has taken a step forward in the gendering of characters. Essentially, Ikki's helmets are only suitable for straight men.
Even though this is just a test product, it is a very bad idea for tech giants such as Baidu, and the company seems to agree. (Compiled / water)
