Google Assistant | Google I/O #1

What is Google Assistant?

Google Assistant is nothing but a Two-way Conversation and a natural dialogue between us and Google to get help and get things done in this real world. In simple words, it is a personal Google for each one of us.It is an independent chat bot app. Take a look at THIS.

Google Assistant was launched in May 2016. It is an extension of Google Now. Google Now just gives an answer to the question asked to it. We aren't able to interact much with Google Now. But Google assistant has wiped this off. Google Pixel, Google Home has access to Google Assistant.It is deployed on many other Android devices in February 2017.It can do many tasks, such as Google Assistant can find photos for you, can tell you how tall someone is, what two times two is, what is the weather, adjust hardware settings on the user's device, etc. 

When we search something on Google assistant we get the answer, after that we do not have to do a fresh search again for the same, if we ask some more question it will give the answers in the same context. Some more example of virtual assistants are Siri in Apple, Cortana in Windows. But Google assistant has many more features than Siri, Cortana. In short Google Assistant >> Siri, Cortana.

Language Support

At its launch on May 18, 2016, it was limited to the English language, it added support for Hindi in 2016. At its developer conference in 2017, Google announced the summer addition of French, German, Brazilian Portuguese and Japanese along with support for Italian, Spanish and Korean by the end of 2017.

In April 2017, a software development kit(SDK) was released, allowing third-party developers to build their own hardware that can run the Google Assistant. It has been integrated into cars from Audi and Volvo and smart home appliances, including fridges, washers, and ovens from companies including iRobot, LG, D-Link and General Electric.
