The thing for me in that example is it's not a particularly complex set of options. It knows I'm asking for the weather, it knows that it should give me the weather in a particular location, and google knows where I'll be tomorrow.
The other main mistake was (despite it getting the conversational part right) thinking "the day after" means today.
I don't think these things require TPUs or new NLP.
- visarga 9y agoYes, they managed assistants badly - Google, Apple and Amazon. They could have added more APIs, recognized many more patterns of user requests, and it's just plain old programming, so what's keeping them? For example, Google Assistant doesn't play nice with YouTube. I guess it isn't in Google's interest to have a free agent software serve a free music site when the same service makes money for Amazon (Alexa). They wanted to make their agent profitable, so didn't let it be extended for free. Just my guess.
