2. The prototype is promising

The Google Assistant is turning out to be assistant in the real sense as it is not now merely for the limited use of the searches that was meant to be made on a mobile device. Earlier there was a synthesized tone which you would hear but now you have a more captivating human voice which helps you out for more purposes than you anticipate.

For example, think of the scenario: When someone is at your doorstep, you are intimated with a pic-perfect live video of the person visiting your home or adjusting of the air-conditioner in your home with uttering of single word or spotting a video channel or live telecast of a TV program of your choice with just naming of the channel or the TV show you wish to watch and that too with amazing functions like pause, playback or adjusting audio level.

3. What elements are in their AI / Voice Recognition

As stated earlier, Google Assistant is now equipped with a human voice that captivates and motivates the user. Earlier there was a synthesized voice which was nothing but mere looping of the pre-decided texts to respond to a voice query. Now Google has come up with the cutting-edge technology called WaveNet which is an artificial brain. Using statistical data samples, it responds to a query in a real human voice from the samples it has been fed with. And the genius brains have succeeded in producing the responding voice near about 50% of the original human voice. Moreover, it will be adorned with human emotions, pitch, and tone to make it richer in experience.

4. Is there a timeline?

Google’s AI will be timeless as there is a huge scope for the improvisation and improvements in the areas currently we find. The AI introduced by Google is sure to be futuristic as was demonstrated with the UBER App. It was more conversational and requiring less tapping of the keys of the smartphone. The human-computer interactions are going to be a commonplace and benchmarking which the leading brands today are somewhere lacking at.

5. Google Assistant in Media with New Features and Functionality

The extent to which the Google’s AI would reach is unimaginable yet the examples that Google set in their previous demo were enough for one to guess of the time when he/she will have a virtual assistant in the form of a smartphone performing series of tasks without making a single mistake, displaying high-end human-machine interactions. For example,

• Appointment to a hair-cut salon was scheduled by the Google AI. The person replying on the phone hardly had any idea that he was talking to a machine.
• Likewise, another demo was for the reservation of a table at a restaurant.

Both of these examples show the possibility of the development of the AI acting more and more smartly. Undoubtedly, Google’s duplex AI will be a step ahead due to their efforts is directed towards bringing in the high-end technology in day-to-day life.
