At Apple Event, in addition to the iPhone 4S, Siri also announced. Apple's speech recognition software. But we do?! Voice Control, which is opened by holding the home button. And who uses it? I do not know anybody. But Siri is different ...
Voice recognition has been used for years and evolves slowly but there is a huge difference with Siri. It's the biggest thing that the mobile phone industry will again change since the advent of the iPhone in 2007.
Siri has its roots in most artificial intelligence (AI) in history, the CALO project of the Pentagon. CALO translated means as much as the Cognitive Assistant that Learns and Organizes and was manned by 300 smart people in all areas of artificial intelligence.
And now it comes, the project was led by Adam Cheyer, now chief engineer of Apple's iPhone group. The focus has changed from a military to a consumer project with the aim of artificial intelligence in your pocket.
Cheyer and his team have spent the past four years to optimize the parts needed for this from the CALO project Siri, integrating speech recognition and natural dialogue, understanding, vision, speech, machine learning, planning, logic and service delegation.
All with the aim of creating a human-like assistant to help you get things settled. And it is, after eighteen years tinkering, Siri managed to port to the iPhone and iOS5. No voice, but real artificial intelligence.
Siri and Voice Control
Siri does not have voice control as a fixed set of commands that you can speak to specific tasks to achieve. No, Siri recognize the words, the meaning and relevance in combination to perform the task. You can say things that literally seen, nothing to do with the assignment, but Siri understand what you mean based on context and experience. Experience is important, because Siri to learn.
Siri for a certain context to understand as "Look Marjo reached" I do Siri previously have told my wife Marjo and Siri will now know that I mean to call Marjo. Based on its agenda, which she shares with icloud, Siri she knows at work and asks me if he's at work, home or mobile to call. Siri knows and understands just.
Another example is when you wake up because you want to take a nap will do. You ask Siri "Make me 20 minutes to wake up 'and Siri will alarm at 20 minutes from now. Every man understands such commands from the experience, but for a machine this is a big step.
Siri gives you one time information from the web, sometimes performs an action and simultaneously checks for your application. By integrating the database of Wolfram Alpha can be any questions and you will not have a website, but real answers to questions like, "Why is the sky blue?" and "What time is it in Los Angeles?". This is artificial intelligence.
Bluetooth 4.0
The iPhone 4S is the first mobile phone that supports Bluetooth 4.0. Great, but what does that more than the version already in the iPhone's 4? With Bluetooth 4.0 devices and peripherals you from sleeping out.
Connect this technology, with extremely low power consumption, with Siri and you get a situation where you no longer need to press the home button to send instructions. You can just start talking to Siri and Enterprise
Still in beta, but Siri lead a new era of a new relationship in the interface between humans and machines. Real artificial intelligence for the masses ...
Thank you Steve for changing the world again ...
