Q&A Round 2 [continued]
In what fields or how are these technologies being used? 这些人工智能和机器人科技具体是在哪些领域如何被使用的？

3. 人工智能的第三大应用领域：智能客服
Automated customer services
Where there are language barriers, I think automated customer services can be very useful.
Language barriers 语言障碍
语言障碍？！是说中文吗？Alex真是太谦虚啦哇哈哈~
They sometimes lack the emotion that you want.
Lack the emotion 缺乏【人类的】感情
Human-machine interaction 人机交互

4. 重点人群身份识别系统
重点人群是个非常中国化的说法，所以Alex说'we don't have the direct name but we do have the same sort of system. We refer to it as Automated Facial Recognition System. '
The direct name 可以直译的名字
Refer to sth as ... 把某事/某物叫做……
Automated Facial Recognition System 自动脸部识别系统 【敢情刷脸技术最初是为犯罪分子设计的】
It can also be used for other importance. 它也可以用于其他重要场合或领域。
这里的Importance，是个要划重点的地方。你会发现我中文需要对应翻译出“场合或领域”这种但在英语中，却可以直接用importance大家就可以妥妥滴意会出来了。语言谁好谁坏，我觉得其实有时候真是半斤八两。

The most common use of .. is when people want to check into work.
Check into work. 上班打卡
For criminal detection, this is also being trialed in London. 犯罪分子识别方面，这项技术也正在伦敦试运行中。

5. 智能网络视频云服务平台
云服务平台： cloud services
视频分享网站：video-sharing site

I mean a very big example of cloud services is wechat apps and Alipay [mini] apps ... 云服务在中国最显著的案例是微信和支付宝里面的小程序和应用。

You don’t have to download the app because you can have the mini apps within the Wechat app.

A big example 最显著，最有名的例子
Mini apps 小程序

And the smart side of these video sites is because they offer a personalized service。 这些视频网站的聪明之处就在于它们提供个性化的服务。
a personalized service 个性化的服务

They provide their recommendations so what we would say is that they provide smart profiling. They will build up a profile of the users.
smart profiling智能建档
Build up a profile 建立档案，动宾结构的说法

Classic Hong Kong Kungfu movies 香港经典功夫派

Comedy 喜剧

That's the positive aspect of it, but it also raises lots of concern among Internet users. 也引发网络用户的很多担心忧虑。

Maybe they are using personal information to target advertising at you. 或许它们在利用你的个人信息来锁定你感兴趣的广告领域。
这个没法直译得很自然，target advertising at you 可以理解为用你感兴趣的广告来瞄准你，就是实现精准营销。
Target sth. at you 用某物瞄准你

比如：
Target pop music at the young 针对年轻人推广流行乐
Target life insurance at the aged 向老年人推广人寿保险

What people are concerned about is ...人们担心的是…
Sb. is concerned about sth. 担心某事

They are still developing their critical thinking. 辨别是非的能力正在发展中【尚不强大】

Offensive 让人感觉被冒犯的
Repulsive 让人厌烦的

There's actually a big debate about that [produce placement].
A big debate 很大的争议

The problem is whether the advertising company placed any restrictions or any requirements on the movie or TV program.
Place restrictions/requirements on sth. 对某事有做限制或要求
In actual fact 事实上
Are people believing this TV program is being unbiased or is it biased?
