Frantic efforts to find it in your library fall short, or you can\u2019t remember if it is 45 minutes in or an hour and 40 in.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/t\/amazon\/\" id=\"auto-tag_amazon_1\" data-tag=\"amazon\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Amazon<\/a> has built a solution to that conundrum, combining its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/t\/ai-3\/\" id=\"auto-tag_ai-3_1\" data-tag=\"ai-3\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">AI<\/a> prowess, Fire TV devices, its Alexa+ voice assistant and the vast scale of Prime Video in one new feature for Alexa+ users with Fire TV devices: Describe a scene in a movie, and Prime Video will pull up the scene instantly, no guesswork required.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tUsers can describe the scene using the names of actors or characters, lines of dialogue, or whatever else they can think of. Here are some examples of requests, as outlined by Amazon:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJump to the Ozdust ballroom scene in\u00a0Wicked\u00a0with Glinda\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJump to the scene in\u00a0Mamma Mia\u00a0where Sophie sings \u2018Honey Honey\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJump to the boulder chase scene in\u00a0Raiders of the Lost Ark\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJump to the scene when John McClane says \u2018come out to the coast, we\u2019ll get together, have a few laughs\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJump to the card scene in\u00a0Love Actually\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJump to the scene in\u00a0Red One\u00a0where Santa flies over the city\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tAmazon has thousands of movie titles available at launch, including tens of thousands of scenes, and the company says that it is indexing more all the time.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tIt is worth noting that users will need to be fully-baked in the Amazon ecosystem to get the capabilities: They will need a Fire TV device (sorry Roku or Apple TV users!), a Prime or Prime Video subscription, and access to Alexa+, which is included in Prime but will soon be available as a standalone subscription.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tAmazon has also been integrating AI into its platform for years, going back to its X-Ray tools, which provide information about actors and scenes. Alexa+ also allows for conversational features like acting about an actor\u2019s filmography, sports highlights, or recommendations based on things the user has watched.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n\tLast month Amazon also launched <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/tv\/tv-news\/amazon-ai-recap-videos-tv-shows-1236431061\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">AI-powered series recaps<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We\u2019ve all been there: You\u2019re describing a scene from a movie, but you can\u2019t quite remember all the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":173040,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[220,3468,3281,61,60,80],"class_list":{"0":"post-173039","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-technology","8":"tag-ai","9":"tag-amazon","10":"tag-amazon-prime-video","11":"tag-ie","12":"tag-ireland","13":"tag-technology"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/173039","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=173039"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/173039\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/173040"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=173039"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=173039"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=173039"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
