Google joins the personal conversation | ITWeb


Google joins the personal conversation with Allo Google Allo is a smart messaging app for Android and iOS mobile devices, available globally today. It differentiates itself from other messaging apps by allowing users to chat to Google Assistant within conversations. This means conversations in the app will be littered with extra information curated by the artificially intelligent personal assistant. The point of integrating Google Assistant into chat, says Google, is to allow users to stay within chat when they want to look up some information, instead of leaving to use a browser. The more it is used, the better it becomes, by saving preferences such as always showing the weather in Celsius. I quite like the ability to not only voice dictate to it, but also the option to select some suggested options that it presents so that you can work silently. It is a sort of Google Now rolled in with an instant messenger. See http://ift.tt/2cJL7Cy
