I do not tend to make fun of someone disaster but on other site somebody said it will be "smart bomb". I say it can be voice operated remote smart bomb :-). And because it will be smart it will announce self destruction as somebody already pointed here.
This is good news. This only helps propel innovative technologies. The more the merrier. Microsoft, Facebook, Apple, IBM, Google, the more the deep pocket players spend, the better and faster the benefit to the consumer.
Agreed.
It's worth pointing out that the rot set into Microsoft once monopolised the desktop market. The company became fat and lazy. When the iPhone landed they thought they would simply because they were Microsoft.
Ballmer still can't get over what happened; now he's on Bloomberg, insisting that the only reason he was beaten by Apple was because the iPhone was subsidised by the carriers.
Yep it happens to all successful companies. Myopia on the day's bread and butter product or service and losing peripheral vision on everything else. That may or may not be happening to Apple, but it is a huge factor in great companies downfalls.
But back on topic, when so many companies with deep pockets spend on something like they are on AI, the consumer is the one who most benefits. And it's always good to see competition. When something is monopolized, everything halts to a grind including benefit to the consumer.
I am so tired of this Viv vaporware being touted everywhere by Samsung. When is the 8 even coming out? Tell everyone how great it is once it actually gets here.
Let's see how Viv works out in the real world and not at a pre-planned presentation.
VIV is three generation ahead of limited systems as Siri, Cortana and Google Now.
Last three are NOT Artificial Intelligent but programmed 'intelligent'. So they are limited. They only can do what the programmers 'told' them to do.
VIV is from another Galaxy. It's self learning and can write his own code. VIV is getting to know you by time and will improve it's intelligence by learning. VIV can easily be adopted by any programmer to be used with allmost any piece of hardware with voice recognition.
NOT possible with Siri, Cortana and Goolge Now.
VERY interesting article written by Brian Roemmele about VIV and why VIV wis generations ahead of the other three.

Siri lovers, read and weep. Sammy is doing it again. Defeating Apple with a total absence of innovation for the past 6-8 years.
