Google is rolling out an update to its app on Android and will soon do the same on iOS.

OK-Google.io – Interactive way to learn OK Google commands
We love finding cool stuff on the internet.Voice assistants have a small (and growing) problem. They’re collectively capable of some pretty in-depth phone controls, but the way we interact with them still isn’t quite as sophisticated as talking to a computer in Star Trek. If you don’t format your command in the right way, you might end up with a plain-Jane web search instead of the action you wanted.We get regular updates from developers, adding additional commands, but often the documentation is lacking when trying to find a comprehensive list. This led web developer ...

Of course the new Google Assistant announced at this year’s Google I/O can go head to head with the rest of the competition and in my opinion can best all of them. It would be easy to dismiss this as a simple upgrade to their ever popular Google Now that has been the lynchpin of the Android experience for some three ...

Talk conversationally dirty to me, Google
Google’s artificial intelligence may soon be able to snatch dates away from you at the bar. It’s been reading up and refining its pickup game by reading up on romance novels:“Damn girl, this is the best French toast I’ve ever had.”and:I wanted to peel that dress off of your body myself and I’m pissed I won’t get the chance to now.It was difficult picking out passages from Kelly Elliott’s Unconditional Love, but those are just two of the many from the ...
