Google announced Assistant to control smartphones, smartwatches and other devices such as Chromecast, at the Google I/O. It can reply to your questions, similar to Google Now, but in a conversational manner get things done in a better way. It is an ambient experience that will work seamlessly across devices and contexts. “It builds on all our years of investment in deeply understanding users’ questions,” said the company.
You can find information, play media and carry out tasks – such as booking cinema tickets using back-and-forth conversation. This appears to be a direct competitor to Alexa and Siri. Google will also allow third-party developers to join and add their own services when Assistant launches.
Google announced Google Home, a voice-activated home assistant and a speaker and Allo messaging app at the event that makes use of Google assistant.
