摘要

当我到达朋友乔治的新家时,外面的温度已经开始下降了。这个地方比我想象的要大。我按了门铃,门铃里播放着约翰·列侬(John Lennon)的《钱》(Money)。乔治打开门迎接我。客厅像往常一样,有一张沙发,一张小桌子,两把椅子和大约十几个服务员。尽管如此,它还是令人印象深刻。“你是怎么得到这个地方的?”我问乔治。这些天湾区的房地产很火爆。“我很幸运,”乔治说。“之前拥有它的人在阿拉巴马州赚了钱,听说了比特币,就来这里兑现。乔治咧嘴一笑。通过向他们出售皮革制作的钱包。事实证明,就像有些人不想在有人去世的地方买房子一样,在这里,他们也不会在企业倒闭的地方买房子。只不过这次更严重,因为涉及到钱。“那你的新点子是什么?”我问。“每个人都在做物联网初创公司,从冰箱到相框再到恒温器,所有东西都可以联网。所以我也这么做了。这房子里几乎所有的东西都是智能的。“但这还不足以让一家初创公司与众不同。乔治接着说。“然后我想起来了。如果你所有的电器都能互相交谈,那么能监听可能是个好主意。我翻了个白眼。“即使对你来说,这也是个馊主意,”我告诉他。“不懂电脑的人肯定会想看看包数。”“你说得对。我的系统将这些命令翻译成英语,它有一个人工智能来根据房子的环境来解释这些命令。乔治看了看他的智能手表。“你正好可以看到加热和冷却系统开始工作。跟我来。“我们走进一个巨大的房间。一面墙上排列着窗户,所有的窗户都关着,拉着窗帘,把下午的热气挡在外面。乔治把我领到内墙,里面有扬声器、显示器、恒温器和温度计。“温度计显示内部温度以及外部一堆温度传感器的温度。这样房子就可以计算出关闭空调和打开窗户的确切时间。他按了一个按钮。“让我们听听。恒温器:室外温度足够凉爽。关掉空调,拉上窗帘,打开窗户。AC: ?这里太闷了。窗户:哪个方向是开着的?窗帘:如果我叠起来,就会被弄皱。恒温器:窗户,打开是开着的。关掉空调。AC:我会妥协的。我把自己调高5度。窗口:哪条路是向上的?窗帘:你看,没人关心我们。我们只是装点门面而已。恒温器:空调已经关了。窗帘,熨斗可以把你熨平。窗户,向上是朝向天花板的。窗帘:好的。我们喜欢铁。他是热的。现在就上去。窗户:天花板是什么?恒温器:*&*$%$#只是灵活。窗户弯曲。哦,打开了。恒温器:空调,把自己调到99度。

The Obligatory Internet-of-Things Column
h I ARRIVED AT my friend George’s new house as the temperature outside had begun to drop. The place was bigger than I had expected. I rang the doorbell, which played a clip of John Lennon singing ‘‘Money.’’ George opened the door and greeted me. The living room, as usual had one couch, one small table, two chairs, and about a dozen servers. Still, it was impressive. ‘‘How did you score this place?’’ I asked George. Housing in the Bay Area was hot these days. ‘‘I got lucky,’’ George said. ‘‘The guy who owned it before made his money in Alabama, heard about bitcoins, and came here to cash in.’’ George grinned. ‘‘By selling leather-tooled purses for them. It turns out that just like some people don’t want to buy a house where someone died, around here they don’t buy houses where businesses died.
