Your personal assistant Siri

February 16th, 2010 by June von Bonin

After the universal translator how about addressing your iPhone like Captain Kirk the Enterprise’s computer?

With the new application, Siri, you can literally have a conversation with your Apple iPhone. Expect “Better wear a warm winter coat today” when asking for the weather report.

The tech behind this app came out of a project from the Stanford Research Institute as part of a government funded artificial intelligence project called CALO, or Cognitive Agent that Learns and Organizes. Over time, the app will learn about what a user likes and the searches will get better and better.
