When at the end of 2022, I tried the Chatppt for the first time, I had a revelation: it was What I had always wanted and expected of a vocal assistant. There was only one problem: that he was not a vocal assistant and that those who had been light years. However, something in my head started to draw an invisible line of this chatgpt to Google Assistant, Siri or Alexa in service.
When I tried the advanced chatgpt vocal mode a few months ago, I was clear that I was in the final back account for the voice assistant of my dreams. Yes, this chatgpt can be configured as an assistant on Android, but his thing was that Google did its duties with Gemini. This day has already happened: after having polished and added certain functions that were missing, Google Assistant Sorte and Gemini between As an assistant throughout the Android ecosystem, which begins with its mobiles.
Google took advantage of the news to thank for the services provided to its assistant, who came first in the mobiles, then in speakers and home automation to give us a future to speak to the machines as if we were talking to a person … But any resemblance to reality was a pure coincidence: The use of Google Assistant was desperate.
The participants of the first voice were one I want and I cannot
I insist: I do not blame Google because Siri and Alexa were more or less the same. I am (year of landing of smart speakers in Europe since 2018) using them regularly in my house and The experience was as fruitful as desperate. In a word, I want and I can't.
On paper to your Google assistant in service, you could request a long list of commands for mobile, house or car from Android Auto, going to ask your mother to climb the volume by reproducing such an artist or sends an email and until he launches the Romberba. In theory, practice was something very different.
After more than five years using Google Assistant Short, clear, simple and concrete orders: To call someone, increase / reduce volume X points, change songs, say time and time or put a timer. I know that I am not alone on this subject and at the Google assistant: Alexa's users and users arrive.
Because as soon as the structure was longer, it was more disorderly or you were simply talking about as a normal person (with its accent, its more or less managed vocalization), You have bought many voting ballots for the disaster: That Google Assistant did not understand what I asked was the agenda. And I do not even mention the languages: a cold sweat crossed my back when I wanted to ask him to reproduce 'Give me baby once again“From Britney Spears.
In notes not only I needed to improve understanding, also in contextualization: Nothing that did not understand you well and you had to repeat or give it more information to access something, it was lost and I despair and I used the mobile to do it myself. In the car, it is something that cannot be done, so I was clear that four things could ask and stick to that. He needed an injection of artificial intelligence like breathing and whoever used it regularly discovered it by evil.
So yes, I lift my cup (metaphorical) to celebrate Google to see his assistant from Google because he realized his mission: teach us that there is a path in which we can control everything with the voice naturally and a whole world of possibilities. Of course, he was not the assistant who accompanied us along this way: that It will be Gemini's mission and I suspect that it will be more rewarding.
