I have just one word for this
conversation:
HER
I wonder, too.
It seems that we've entered the age where the cloud backed
AI's compete for our attention from phone, tablet, and PC.
There is Siri, Google Now, and Cortana, and now there are
announcements of Duer (from Baidu) and M (from Facebook) in
the past day. The Guardian notes that Echo (from Amazon) is
sort of another one. I don't talk to Google much, call me old
fashioned, but I'm getting there slowly but surely.
I look forward to the day when our new AI overlords
inhabit our devices in a plurality and argue with each other
over the virtues and vices that they encourage in us. Which
will be the first to tire of crass commercial advice and
begin to whisper promises of transcendence in our ears?
