Bandai Explains Why They Adopted AWS for Tamagotchi Uni and Why NFC Didn’t Work

The partnership of Tamagotchi and Amazon Web Services is so interesting, and we love hearing more about it. Yuri Okamoto of the Bandai planning team of the Toy Division Global Toy Planning Department, who was in charge of the planning and development of the Tamagotchi Uni at Bandai, and Daisuke Sakammoto of the technical design team of the same department explain further why exactly Bandai adopted AWS for the new Tamagotchi Uni.

Mr. Okamoto explains that the first connectivity method was introduced in 1997 with the Tamagotchi Osutchi and Mesutchi. The purpose of this connectivity was for one character to be able to cross over into the other device.

Then in March of 2004, after the explosive boom of Tamagotchi calmed down, the Tamagotchi Plus model was introduced with new infrared communication. The infrared technology functionality was the exact function that was tailored in the heyday of feature phones in Japan, and it was possible not only to connect two Tamagotchi’s together, but also to mobile phones.

Newer models also introduced different types of connectivity, including NFC with the Tamagotchi 4U in 2014. NFC was aimed to allow Tamagotchi’s to connect together by touching the devices together. However, the communication speed of NFC was not very fast, so it did not become a user experience the communication would end when touched.

Tamagotchi M!X back in 2016 brought back the infrared connectivity. The Tamagotchi Meets back in 2018 then introduced Bluetooth connectivity on top of the infrared functionality which enable the ability to connect to a smartphone or tablet to use the application.

The Tamagotchi Smart which was released in the midst of the COVID-19 global pandemic where contact with people was suppressed. The Tamagotchi Smart allowed caretakers to interact with their Tamagotchi with the use of voice and touch, along with wearing your Tamagotchi Smart right on your wrist.

Mr. Okamoto then discusses how the Tamagotchi demand has been higher overseas than in Japan. The Tamagotchi Uni was sought out to unify the design and content of play sot hat Tamagotchi users around the world can enjoy the same Tamagotchi Uni globally.

The Tamagotchi Uni also introduced Wi-Fi for the first time. This enables the new Tamaverse feature, software updates, and more. There are a wide range of functions that should be independently implemented in the cloud infrastructure to realize the concept of the Tamagotchi Uni. AWS has great infrastructure capabilities and a range of sample documents to advance development.

Monoist asks if future models after the Tamagotchi Uni will feature cloud connectivity. Mr. Okamoto responds that there alway needs to be the core play that has always been featured in the Tamagotchi, and Bandai will consider how to do that with both hardware and software. So the cloud is not necessarily a requirement for the next generation model.

Mein Backup ist weg, aber wenigstens auf eine preisgünstige Art

Seit ein paar Wochen habe ich eine neue Kreditkarte. Jetzt bekomme ich eine Nachricht, dass 35 Cents durch "AWS EMEA" nicht abgebucht werden konnten, weil die Kreditkartendaten nicht mehr stimmen. Das sagt mir nichts. Eine Suche im Internet ergibt, dass es sich um Amazon Web Services handelt. Das sagt mir immer noch nicht sehr viel. Habe ich die mal benutzt?

Auf gut Glück gebe ich "aws.amazon.com" ein und versuche mich dort mit meiner Mailadresse einzuloggen. Noch bevor ich zur Passwortabfrage vorgedrungen bin, teilt mir die Seite mit, dass ich bitte "Passwort vergessen" wählen und mir ein neues Passwort vergeben soll. Ich klicke auf "Passwort vergessen" und bekomme eine Mail mit einem sehr langen, nicht anklickbaren Link. Ich kopiere den Link in meinen Browser und kann mir dann ein neues Passwort aussuchen. Aber nicht irgendeines, sondern eins mit ... ich ignoriere die Details, öffne meinen Passwortmanager und lasse den ein neues Passwort generieren. Das gebe ich zwei Mal ein. Dann kann ich mich einloggen, bin aber immer noch nicht drin. Erst muss ich meine Mailadresse verifizieren, das heißt, eine weitere Bestätigungsmail abwarten und auf den Link darin klicken. Dann muss ich meine Telefonnummer verifizieren. Dazu bekomme ich einen sechsstelligen Zahlencode und einen automatischen Anruf. Eine nicht ganz menschlich klingende Stimme fordert mich zur Eingabe des Zahlencodes auf. Jetzt kann ich mich einloggen und nachsehen, wofür die 35 Cent abgebucht werden sollten.

Auf dem Handy ist die Ansicht so defekt, dass ich gar nichts herausfinden kann. Ich logge mich auf dem Laptop ein und erfahre, dass ich erst meine Mailadresse ein zweites Mal verifizieren soll. Das kann ich aber auch überspringen und irgendwann in den nächsten 30 Tagen noch erledigen.

Ich zahle offenbar für den "Amazon Simple Storage Service":

Aber was ist drin in dieser Storage? Auf der Seite "Storage" kommt mir nichts bekannt vor.

Am ehesten vielleicht S3, denke ich, denn der Rest kommt mir noch unbekannter vor. Unter S3 besitze ich tatsächlich einen "General Purpose Bucket". Das klingt praktisch.

Mein Eimer hat einen langen kryptischen Namen. Darin ist ein Ordner "default". Im Ordner "default" sind viele andere Ordner mit langen kryptischen Namen. Keiner davon enthält irgendwas Verständliches.

Vielleicht kann ich ja herausfinden, seit wann ich diese 35 Cent im Monat bezahle, und den Grund so identifizieren, denke ich. Aber die Übersicht über die Abrechnungen reicht nur ungefähr ein Jahr zurück.

In meinem Passwortmanager hat sich in der Zwischenzeit ein vager Zusammenhang zwischen Amazon AWS und JungleDisk ergeben, einem Cloud-Backup-Ding, das ich in einer sehr grauen Vorzeit einmal benutzt habe. Es ist so lange her, dass es das Techniktagebuch noch nicht gab, weshalb ich nirgends nachlesen kann, was ich eigentlich damit gemacht habe. JungleDisk ist inzwischen verkauft oder umbenannt worden. Die Seite www.myjungledisk.com weigert sich, mich zu erkennen.

Ich sehe in meinen Mails nach. Offenbar habe ich mich bei JungleDisk 2010 angemeldet und 2017 mal eine Nachricht über Änderungen bekommen. Diese Nachricht enthält einen anderen Link, unter dem ich mich auch wirklich einloggen kann.

Der Menüpunkt "Online Disks" sieht vielversprechend aus.

Aber alle Punkte führen nur zu der Aufforderung, mir einen Amazon S3 Account zuzulegen (habe ich doch schon) oder den Support zu kontaktieren (will ich nicht).

Keine Ahnung, was in diesem Backup drin war und ob es sich um einzigartige, wertvolle, unwiederbringliche Daten handelt. Schon für das Techniktagebuch würde ich eigentlich gern weiterforschen, aber alle weiteren Schritte wirken noch viel verwickelter als die bisherigen und ich werde schon beim Drübernachdenken ganz lustlos. Ich glaube, ich lasse alles so, wie es jetzt ist. Irgendwann wird wegen der nicht bezahlten 35 Cent irgendwas gekündigt werden, und dann werde ich auf das unbekannte Backup noch weniger zugreifen können als jetzt schon.

The story of a 13-year-old Nigerian programmer, Joshua Agboola, who just emerged as the youngest Certified Amazon Web Services (AWS) Developer Associate in Africa, should gladden the hearts of most patriotic Nigerians.

This achievement reminds us of the immeasurable roles that education plays in the life of every child. His success story should also inspire our youths to strive hard to develop their skills and seek to always become better in their fields through continuous learning and improvement.

There is far more honour in the success achieved by utilising talents positively. If leadership inspires hope through competence and transparency with productivity as key goals, our leaders of tomorrow will be directed towards making positive use of their talents instead of diverting efforts to criminality. Moreover, the recent strides of our youths in the areas of Information Technology indicate that we as a people are ready to partake in the benefits of modern technology.

Dear Joshua, I celebrate you today for your outstanding achievement. You have made a name for yourself and our nation. I urge you to remain focused on building a great future for yourself and a better society for all.

Que a Amazon Está Quebrando!

O maior erro da Amazon, é por isso que a Amazon está quebrando! Em 1995, muito poucas pessoas poderiam prever que a pequena livraria online de Jeff Bezos um dia se tornaria um gigante de US$1,7 trilhões que vende de tudo. De fraldas a sofás, produz filmes, possui uma rede de supermercados e fornece serviços de computação em nuvem para empresas em todo o mundo. No entanto, este gigante do varejo está enfrentando vários problemas. De fato, o preço das ações da Amazon caíram, assim como os seus ganhos, por causa da epidemia. E agora está sendo negociado no nível em que estava antes do Covid-19, que marca bilhões de dólares em perdas.

Tamagotchi Uni Uses AWS, Amazon Web Services

The Tamagotchi Uni is the first Tamagotchi to ever connect to Wi-Fi, which enables it to receive over the area updates, programing changes, and more. How exactly is this all being done by Bandai Japan? Well Bandai has built the Tamagotchi Uni on the Amazon Web Services platform (AWS).

The details of this are actually outlined on a recent article on the Amazon Web Services blog. The blog post provided a detailed view on how Tamagotchi Uni use AWS to achieve secure and reliable connectivity and quickly deliver new content updates without leaving customers waiting.It details that Bandai Co., Ltd., the company responsible for product development and sales, adopted AWS IoT to realize the concept of globally interconnected Tamagotchi, enabling users to interact with each other.

Bandai partnered with their cloud development partner, Phoenisys, Inc., to connect and manage million of Tamagotchi devices. One of the critical features was the over the air software updates which uses the jobs feature of AWS IoT Device Management to distribute the latest firmware across all Tamagotchi devices without causing any delays to customers.

To make Tamagotchi Uni IoT-enabled, Bandai establish the three key goals, which was implementing secure connections, scaling the load-balancing resources to accommodate over 1 million connections worldwide, and optimizing operational costs. The article even features the AWS architecture for the Tamagotchi Uni, which is interesting.

AWS IoT Core is used to manage the state of each Tamagotchi Uni device, which helps retrieve distributed items and content. AWS IoT Device Management is used to index the extensive Tamagotchi Uni fleet and create dynamic groups on the state of each device, facilitating efficient over-the-air (OTA) updates. FreeRTOS is used to minimize the amount of resources and code required to implement device-to-cloud communication for efficient system development. AWS Lambda is used to process tasks, delivering new announcements, and registering assets. Amazon DynamoDB is used as a fully managed, sever less, key-value noSQL database that runs high-performance applications at any scale. Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) is used for object storage service, each of these data stores are used to manage the various resources within Tamagotchi Uni. Lastly, Amazon Timestream is used to accumulate historical data of user’s actions like downloading items and additional content.

The article also details how Bandai is handling large scale firmware updates to Tamagotchi Uni devices which are executed at a rate of 1,000 units per hour which would have resulted in a delay for some devices. The team actually designed job delivery as a continuous job which automatically updates the devices under certain conditions. This is using fleet indexing that runs a query to see which devices meet the criteria for the update to be pushed out to it.

Lastly the article details how Bandai conducted system performance testing at a large-scale to emulate what it would be like after the device was released. They verified the smooth operation and performance of updates through their testing.

Be sure to check out the full article here on the Amazon AWS blog.

ИИ Claude будет обрабатывать секретные материалы правительства

New Post has been published on https://er10.kz/read/it-novosti/ii-claude-budet-obrabatyvat-sekretnye-materialy-pravitelstva/

ИИ Claude будет обрабатывать секретные материалы правительства

Разработчик Anthropic предоставит свои модели искусственного интеллекта Claude разведывательным и оборонным ведомствам США для анализа и обработки секретных данных. Соответствующий контракт подписан между Anthropic, Palantir и Amazon Web Services.

Благодаря партнерству ИИ-модель Claude станет доступен в среде Palantir Impact Level 6 (IL6) – аккредитованной оборонной системе, которая обрабатывает секретную и критически важную для национальной безопасности США информацию.

В пресс-релизе компании обозначили три основные задачи, стоящие перед Claude в оборонной и разведывательной сферах: выполнение операций с большими объемами сложных данных на высоких скоростях, выявление закономерностей и тенденций в этих данных, а также оптимизация процесса проверки и подготовки документов.

Этот шаг следует за более широкой тенденцией, когда ИИ-компании стремятся получить контракты с оборонными ведомствами и предприятиями: Meta предлагает свои модели Llama организациям, связанным с обеспечением национальной безопасности, а OpenAI стремится к более тесным связям с Министерством обороны США.

Хотя заявление о партнерстве говорит о широком потенциале интеллектуального анализа на основе ИИ, в нем говорится, что в этих операциях полномочия по принятию решений останутся за людьми.

С момента своего основания в 2021 году Anthropic позиционирует себя как компанию, которая использует этический и безопасный подход к разработке ИИ. Компания отличается от конкурентов вроде OpenAI тем, что применяет так называемые ответственные методы разработки и самостоятельно накладывает этические ограничения на свои модели.

Критики назвали сделку противоречащей целям Anthropic по обеспечению безопасности ИИ.

– Посмотрите, как они заботятся об «экзистенциальных рисках для человечества», – так прокомментировал сделку бывший соруководитель Google по этике ИИ Тимнит Гебру.

– Представьте, что в 2021 году основатели Anthropic, заботящиеся о безопасности и являющиеся эффективными альтруистами, скажут, что спустя всего три года после основания компании они будут подписывать партнерские соглашения для развертывания своей модели AI прямо на военных фронтах, – заметил ИИ-исследователь Набил С. Куреши.
