PHYSIX OBSERVATION

Apple's entry into smart homes with HomeView, leveraging AI Siri and a closed ecosystem, challenges existing players, but the lack of an app store may limit expansion. The implementation of NearLink national standards will accelerate the commercialization of domestic wireless technology, while voice cloning and player backdoor incidents warn that AI security risks are spreading from individuals to devices, requiring users to raise their guard.
