S Voice is an application that comes with the Samsung Galaxy S4 which allows the user to use voice commands to do many tasks such as make a call, text message, e-mail, or even update a facebook status. The intelligent interface will respond to the commands and even talk back to you as if it was a real life personal assistant. This feature comes in handy while driving a car due to the fact that driving while using a mobile phone is dangerous, it is illegal, and since April 2013 the cost of a ticket in California is $159! Here is an example of me making a text message using S Voice by just talking to my phone.
Me: "Hi Galaxy"
Me: "Text Eddie"
Galaxy: "What's your message?"
Me: "What are you up to?"
Galaxy: "Here is your message. Ready to send it?"
Me: "Yes"
Galaxy: "OK, I sent it"
It really is that easy. By just talking this application acts just like my own personal assistant. I had asked S Voice "What are you up to?" and she replied "Learning more about humans, like I do every day". So I replied, "I am bored", and she replied "Let's find a way to shake things up." If I said I was hungry S Voice would give me a list of places to eat nearby. I have noticed a bit of sassiness has been designed into the attitude of the S Voice. Not only has this artificially intelligent program made my day a little bit easier it has also made me laugh. There are many other things S Voice can do. Here is a list of other things.
As technology advances and we program computers to be more "intelligent", we move closer to a world where Science Fiction becomes our reality. Maybe someday we might just see some of the Science Fiction images come to life in the real world.
It’s really true that artificial intelligence has replaced human jobs in several different fields. We can see modern robots can now replicate the movements and action of humans. They will be taught to think for themselves and react to changing conditions. There’s robotic vacuum cleaner that tackles one of human’s tedious tasks. This same technology may soon allow robots to perform more boring and repetitive tasks along an assembly line or even sort trash and recycling at waste processing centers.
ReplyDeleteHi David,
ReplyDeleteNice post! I also had great experiences with S voice as well as Siri which has similar features on Apple devices. They sometimes make our lives easier even though both have limited functionalists. I believe that they will have huge improvement in the future because the development of technology is super fast.
Glad to hear the positive feedback, thank you!
