The Computer closer to speak two steps

introduced As the Apple of 2011, Siri, marveled the world. However, in the years since, many more are language added to the wizard, but in our everyday lives, to play a modest role. You are too slow, unreliable and complicated.

Individual recurring tasks you can do year on year is better, and even in football, you know a bit (Siri, what is Offside?). But do not Woe, to formulate the question exactly as it is expected, the Software, or it has no Internet connection, then it works, and there is no answer.

see how much potential there is in a talking Computer, you don't need a degree in computer science. One must keep in mind that people talk much longer than to read and write.

Many of the wizard

last week, found in America's West coast, almost parallel to the developer conferences of Microsoft and Google instead. The corporations make use of such occasions to technologies that will be in the next few years, strategically important.

Microsoft showed at the conference new opportunities for the company's own, capable of learning language to develop the wizard. CEO Satya Nadella pointed out the importance of the future for companies would be to use this technology. This will, of course, as you have today, Websites or Apps. As an example, he cited BMW. The car maker is developed based on Microsoft technology, a language assistant for the own customers.

Interesting presentation was on Microsoft, too, like five years ago, presented company loses its own voice assistant Cortana in importance. Instead of a private assistance service Microsoft now relies on the Interplay of many different language assistant. Depending on the request or task, another assistant is to be used. Regardless of devices, operating systems and platforms.

Faster and offline

At the conference, Google went against it mainly with the Google wizard. If you look at the latest Figures, it is not surprising the: Per month, over 2.5 billion Android devices are now in use. Not to mention the numerous Google Users and users on other platforms. Seen in this way, its not surprising that Google is more dear to the own wizard as Many of wizards such as Microsoft.

Last year, Google has an observer with the possibility to let the Computer via a telephone Restaurant reservations, equally scared as impressed (So it sounds, if Google is calling the robot). Heuer Google waived such Cabinet pieces.

the group had something technically even more Impressive. While other language assistants for speech recognition are on by Internet-connected Server should be able to new Google phones the and offline.

Google's engineers managed to shrink the for voice recognition necessary file to half a Gigabyte, so that everything could run on the phone itself. This brings several advantages: for example, the voice recognition works much faster, if the detour via the Server is somewhere saved in the world, and from a data protection perspective, a significant privacy-risk.

A first demonstration on stage at the developer conference, as there are demonstrations in General, is impressive. The phone understood immediately and without tedious waiting, what was the Google Manager.

the strategies of Microsoft and Google are So different, too, something both companies have in common: In their presentations, they showed how faster and smarter language assistant in the future to facilitate our interaction with computers.

Just as for Multitasking, promises both companies thanks to voice commands for significant improvements to touch screens and other manual input devices. By language mobile phones were so much faster to use than fingers.

And Siri?

You may now be curious as to what to say to Apple about this issue. At the beginning of June, the annual developers conference, the iPhone group will be held with the WWDC. It manages the in the last few years, in terms of language assistants increasingly neglected Siri-a pioneer with all the other tech companies are again the same and similar to how Google a Offline Siri to present?

the Latter, Especially, would fit very well to Apple's focus on privacy and data protection. Finally, Apple points out how many processes directly on the iPhone, and not like the other competitors anywhere in the world on server farms to run. (Editorial Tamedia)
