Ring harnesses generative AI to power Ring Video Descriptions

Ring is bringing generative AI to its family of home security cameras and video doorbells with a new feature called Video Descriptions. Once this feature is enabled, the motion alerts triggered by Ring cameras will be accompanied by an AI-generated analysis of the motion that triggered the camera to record. In a blog post earlier today, Ring founder Jamie Siminoff described how the push notifications Ring users receive on their smartphones when motion is detected will be enhanced with text descriptions of what that motion was. "This new generative AI feature," Siminoff said, "helps you quickly distinguish between urgent and everyday activity with a quick glance at your phone." Ring will use genereative AI to deliver descriptions of the events its security cameras and video doorbells capture on video.
