I'm guessing this is where the Dragon Helmet [1] is headed - it has software (open source) that hopes to fulfil the responses and command execution. And of course mycroft [2] et al. I think the real problem is getting the computer to do things that you haven't programmed it to do. If you imagine an Alexa / Google home where you have a conversation like: "Hey Homexa, do a web search for an image of a piece of cheese, enlarge it to 2000x1500 pixels and email it to me please" If it then came back with "Ok, please tell me how to enlarge an image" and you could give it step by step instructions, that would be amazing. But I don't think the comprehension required is quite there yet. But when we do, and especially if we can crowdsource the learned commands, things could get very, very interesting.
