The head of Google, Sundar Pichai believes that the smartphone era will soon be over. She will be replaced by the era of artificial intelligence. People will no longer rely on mobile devices to obtain the necessary information.
According to Sundar Pichai, it’s a question of priorities: today we live in a world that can be called “first mobile”, i.e. for us smartphones and tablets are necessities. Soon the championship will be already for artificial intelligence, and although electronic devices are not going anywhere, we are to use them will be different.
As noted Vestifinance, Google versed in computer intelligence better than most other players. There is also the development in the field of autopilot, and famous throughout the world AlphaGo, winning champion of the ancient game of go, which had until then been incomprehensible to computers. And, of course, cognitive system, embedded in the algorithm of the search engine, is also the fruit of long research in the field of AI.
But it is worth noting the increasing popularity of mobile assistants programs, endowed if limited, but in some aspects very impressive intelligence built into smartphones and tablets. Sundar Pichai said that has long been involved with such systems, and suggests that they will be the basis for changing priorities in the field of information consumption.
A direct competitor to Google in this case can be considered not only Apple and Microsoft, but also Amazon, has developed two innovative technologies: the Alexa and the Echo. It is particularly interesting to pay attention to the fact that “robots” can Amazon listen to your wishes and to make purchases or to play music. The user should not have to participate in the process: understand it perfectly.
According to rumors, Google is working on a project that combines the advantages of different types of AI. In particular, the assistant will follow you, no matter which device you use. The approach is similar to what Microsoft is doing with Cortana. Pichai I am sure that Google will revolutionize the market, because the more others know about search techniques.
