At a muskmelon store in Haikou in Hainan Province, customers can use artificial intelligence technology to measure the sweetness of the melons on offer, reports thepaper.cn.
据澎湃新闻报道，在海南省海口市的一家甜瓜店，顾客可以使用人工智能技术来测量甜瓜的甜度。
Each muskmelon on display has its own certificate that indicates its level of sweetness, ranging from 90 percent, to 70 percent, to half-ripe.
每一个展出的甜瓜都有自己的甜度证书，表明甜度的等级，范围从九成、七成到半熟的都有。
The measure of sweetness listed on the certificate is based on an AI-assisted add-on inside the popular Alipay payment app.
证书上列出的甜度指标是基于支付宝内的一个人工智能辅助组件。
Customers can upload a picture of a melon into the Alipay add-on, which then provides a report about its sweetness and ripeness.
用户可以将甜瓜的图片上传到支付宝小程序中，然后就会给出甜瓜的甜度和成熟度报告。
Developed by Aliyun, Alibaba's cloud computing and AI subsidiary, the Alipay add-on relies on an AI algorithm trained on more than 150,000 pictures of muskmelons with differing levels of ripeness. Its accuracy is said to be above 90 percent.
这款支付宝小程序是由阿里巴巴的云计算和人工智能子公司阿里云开发的，依赖于一个人工智能算法，据称它学习了150000多张不同成熟度的甜瓜的图片，准确率据说超过了90%。
Jiang Linbo, the owner of the melon store, said that classifying melons according to their sweetness helps to match the fruit to the customer's tastes.
这家瓜店的老板江林波称，根据甜度对瓜进行分类，能满足顾客的不同口味。
"I think agriculture can be high-end, and I always thought AI technology should be combined with agriculture," he said.
他表示：“我认为农业可以做的很高级，我一直想把人工智能和农业结合起来。”
