Google said to be working on messaging app that employs AI
- 8 years ago
Google is working on a new messaging app that will employ artificial intelligence to bring some of the company's data smarts to a chat bot service in the software.
The new chat service would allow users to talk with friends or ask questions of the chat bot, which would attempt to find answers from Google's vast map of the Internet, the Wall Street Journal said.
The launch date isn't known.
Users can already do that to a certain extent with the voice search function built into Google's search bot on mobile and the Web.
By saying "OK Google," users can ask questions in a number of areas and the service will report back an answer.
But the service is limited to certain queries and subjects.
It appears that Google is looking to expand that with additional chatbots.
