I disagree. Should the resident of London, Ontario say it every time to a virtual assistant about the weather when it should be obvious they are interested in the place of residence? And so on, all the same context layers apply (British expat in London, Ontario, etc.)
- schrodinger 6y agoIf they were somehow calling a global hotline that could answer arbitrary questions for free, then yes, I suspect someone in Ontario would still clarify. If it was a local hotline, maybe not. Which is Siri?
- bscphil 6y agoSome additional variations: What if you were calling an individual human personal assistant who knew you lived in London, Ontario? What if you had previously clarified to this person that when you said London, you meant London, Ontario? I think both of these questions ought to be relevant to the digital personal assistants that we're creating.
