In BlackBerry OS will be an analog of Siri [video]

In May of this year, the Canadian company Research in Motion gave developers two thousand experimental prototypes of smartphones based on the latest BlackBerry operating system 10, more precisely, with its pre-release version. Recently the mobile platform has received an update that has attributed the operating system voice control.

Just press the button «Play / Pause» to the device to gain access to the universal search, a trail Bing Maps, weather, calendar, multimedia player, opening websites in the browser - all using voice commands.

Of course, the possibility of voice aid BlackBerry-are far from the platform that offers Apple Siri or Google Voice Actions, but RIM still has no choice as to catch up with competitors.

Apple accused of spying for the users using the Siri

The publication Technology Review warns smartphone users iPhone 4S that Siri record voice commands and sends the collected data on the servers of Apple, said SecurityLab.

 

According to researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Voice Assistant to Apple, has the function of recording the user's voice and speech samples collected by it, is as unique as fingerprints, can be an excellent target for various attacks. On them you can easily identify any user's iPhone 4S.

Researchers believe that a smartphone should pass to Apple only "features of speech, not the speech itself." Despite the fact that this decision will create an additional burden on the processor and the battery device, it should not affect the quality of the recording. Only by refusing access to the full voice signal, the company will be able to avoid charges of unauthorized collection of confidential data.

Apple, in turn, states that does not collect data about their users and servers that corporations do not store the names, photos or fingerprints of the owners of "apple" gadgets.

However, according to Apple spokesperson Trudy Muller, Siri writes it really user, but only if you pronounce a specific sentence, "What are the weather." This entry is used only for testing assistant to understand and recognize the Siri requests.

With regard to the collection of samples to vote, Mueller said that Apple is committed to protecting the security of user data, and Siri Assistant is not able to collect samples of speech, let alone send them via the Internet in an unencrypted form on the company's servers.

According to representatives of Apple, Siri actually gains access to the contact list the user specifies its location and scans the list of audio and videos, but this is done solely in order to be able to respond to requests for the owner of the device as much as possible and faster.

Google in a hurry with the release of an analogue of Siri for Android

As reported by the journalists of the newspaper Wall Street Journal, the manufacturer of the operating system Android, the company Google, has accelerated the pace of developing its own rival Siri. This is a personal assistant,  Assistant Google .

 

Internet giant wants to make Google Assistant - the main control function smartphones and tablets on the basis of the next version of the operating system Android. The main difference from the Siri will be the "openness" of the instrument. With this third-party developers to integrate Google Assistant in their programs.

It is unknown whether the development be limited to only Android or whether it will be available in other software platforms. By the way, Google has already started work on the voice search engine, and perhaps these ideas will be included in the basis of future innovations.

  

Note that the first mention of the development of analog Siri for Android came in December last year, then reported on a new technology code-named  Majel . In March 2012 portal TechCrunch reported on the Google project called Google Assistant. According to the Wall Street Journal, the Internet giant hopes to include in your voice service platform Android 5.0 Jelly Bean.

According to reports, Jelly Bean will be more market-oriented plates and preparing to bring a dual-boot feature, as well as the ability to switch between different operating systems without shutting down the device.

LG launches its own analog voice assistant Siri

LG has announced the launch of a virtual assistant Quick Voice, which was a response to the emergence of the Korean manufacturer Apple Siri and Samsung S Voice . Assistant to the LG based on the same principles as the Siri or S-Voice and speech recognition is based on the input and management of natural language.

 

LG Quick Voice is now able to handle the eleven applications, including the dialer, mail client, address book, alarm clock, calendar. New mapping is capable of performing search, search for stock information, give answers from the Internet, turning it into a written text.

Users can ask for Quick Voice to tell the time, watch the weather forecast, call, make a note, etc. It is unknown whether the technology is trained to search for the presence of local places such as restaurants - Siri in iOS support of the six enriched for Korea.

However, unlike Apple and Samsung, the Korean company intends to use the Quick Voice in a number of its smartphones. In particular, in late June or early July, the service will support a range of existing smartphone LG Optimus, including such devices as the LG Vu and LTE II. The new technology will be available through the update Android-“firmware.”

Apple integrates Siri cars in the class "luxury"

At the developer conference WWDC  Californian giant, in addition to operating systems iOS 6 and OS X Mountain Lion and the widespread introduction of Retina Display offered something of car: the car the next button will appear next Apple. Nine automotive giants have already signed an agreement on this.

 

A new feature called Eyes Free and is a button on the steering wheel, which includes voice assistant at Siri iPhone 4S iPad or a new owner. After this information from iOS-devices can be obtained by negotiation, without being distracted from driving. Automakers are already lined up for the new button: Apple signed an agreement with Audi, BMW, Chrysler, GM, Honda, Jaguar, Land Rover, Mercedes Benz and Toyota. Most cars manufactured by these companies belong to a class "lux".

It may be noted dramatic differences in the approaches of the two American giants for a new idea: GM, apparently, decided to sacrifice their similar development OnStar. But the carmaker Ford, Sync offers a multimedia system based on technologies from Microsoft, the list of partners is missing.

Siri service currently allows users not only to voice search, and manage mobile devices, Apple, but to actually talk to the electronic companion. In cars Siri will be renamed the Eyes Free. Drivers will be able to dictate and send text messages, voice control various systems: audio, navigation, etc. The first car with Eyes Free to appear in 2013.

Voice Assistant Siri will appear on the iPad with the release of iOS 6 [photos]

Until the day of  presentation of the new iPad  on the Internet rumors that the Apple tablet will be endowed with a function of Siri. However, this did not happen. The fact that the Voice Assistant is not included in the box of the new device, it was a big disappointment for the users.

 

However, according to 9to5Mac, the new release of iOS 6 tablets iPad still receive support from Siri. This is not simply a function of the dictation, as in the current version, emphasize bloggers, and a full personal assistant. It will be slightly different from what we used to see, but will be able to perform all the same commands as on the iPhone 4S, except for phone.

In other words, the owners of the "apple" the tablet will be able to control your device using your voice, giving commands to play music, create reminders and calendar events, notes, voice search in Safari and others.

 

Designers have developed a concept of 9to5Mac, will look like Siri on the iPad. As it became known publishing, voice assistant on the tablet will not open full screen, which is logical, given the size of the display, but nevertheless, produce any other effect on the gadget with advanced function will fail.

According to sources, Apple is testing Siri on the iPad, and iPad Third Generation 2. But most likely, the newspaper notes, the function will be the exclusive personal secretary for the latest generation iOS-plates, first and foremost to reduce the load on the servers of the company.

In iOS 6, codenamed «Sundance» will be given access to the Siri for Developers

A new version of mobile operating system iOS 6 is expected to fall this year, possibly even later than that will be released  OS X Mountain Lion . Perhaps the next platform for the iPhone and the iPad will be announced at the conference WWDC, and then follow months of testing and debugging of the OS.

Publication of TechCrunch, citing programmers, close to the development, argues that the sixth version of iOS will be really integrated a new mapping service from Apple, "a startling three-dimensional maps." Previously, once two sources told that the next major software update for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad company refuses to Google services, and will rely entirely on their own and acquired development.

According to the newspaper, iOS 6 will be released in the form of pre-release to developers conference in June at WWDC. When it became known that the operating system is code-named «Sundance».

The main innovation of the platform, in addition to 3D-maps will be available to the voice assistant Siri for third-party developers. Apple will open API so that developers can integrate voice aid support to their applications, said a source. In this regard, we can assume the appearance in the App Store a new class of software, built on the voice interaction with the user. In addition, as reported to the owners of iPad, finally, will benefit from an assistant. Apple engineers are now trying to integrate different versions of the interface Siri Tablet PCs.

Also, according to the newspaper, along with iOS 6 will be represented by a major upgrade iTunes multimedia platform 11. Apple software will move toward desktop client for Spotify functionality and the interface receives a major update, writes TechCrunch. iTunes 11 more will be a cloud service iCloud, which is its integral part.

Most likely to appear in iOS 6.0 and other innovations. One can only hope that all of these sensory-cloud benefits will not kill the battery smartphone or tablet in half a day, and set the update is possible, including the relatively old iPhone 3GS, iPod touch and iPad 1.

Siri called Nokia Lumia 900 the best cell phone

Another funny thing happened to personal assistant Siri - built-in smart iPhone 4S.

 

At this time, one user device assistant asked what cell phone is the best. If you think that Siri said «iPhone 4S», you're wrong - Apple's personal secretary, said that such device is Nokia Lumia 900 in the blue version. This smartphone is based on WP7 supporting LTE networks is selling U.S. operator AT & T.

Such a response Siri is not the result of a master attack or a malfunction of the device. In fact, Apple Voice Assistant Service operates on the basis of Wolfram Alpha , which is a symbiosis of the search engine and an encyclopedia. International same estimates, including the degree of customer satisfaction of mobile gadgets. And, since American users rather liked this phone, Siri called it the best mobile phone.

 

Important role played in this action of the operator AT & T, which is the exclusive distributor of the Finnish leader in the U.S.. According to some reports the company  , "let down" on the campaign Lumia 900 over $ 150 million. This is several times larger than a mobile service provider spent on promoting the iPhone 4.

Apple TV gets a video camera iSight, Siri support and FaceTime

Hypothetical TV Apple is probably one of the most intriguing new products all the electronics market. It is learned that a mysterious device, On which work is in full swing in the bowels of the Californian company, will have an advanced camera technology and voice control.

 

According to an anonymous source thematic blog Cult of Mac, who managed to see a prototype TV Apple, this is not just a big monitor like the Cinema Display, but something "much more". Thus, according to an insider, iTV has a built in web camera iSight, intended for video calls and conferences FaceTime.

"Built-in iSight camera quite clever. It recognizes the rights and can focus on his face when he walks around the apartment. This allows you to make video calls, sitting on the couch in any corner of the room, without having to stand in front of the camera. "

Another new feature will be a service for voice control of Siri, a well-known owners of smartphones like iPhone 4S "personal assistant". He will assume the channel switching, volume control and screen settings, eliminating the need for the remote control. Apple's personal secretary to help initiate and video FaceTime. Access the Internet through the iTV will be wireless technology Wi-Fi.

 

Release Apple TV under the brand wanted to founder Steve Jobs, who admitted to his biographer Walter Isaacson, is going to revolutionize the television industry. According to the latest Cupertino company will begin selling the device  until 2014 .

The function of self-destruction iPhone after an incorrect password [video]

According to rumors, the Cupertino-based company has decided to refuse a glass case and clothe the new iPhone in the "clothes" from the "liquid metal". It is also assumed that the smartphone will receive increases of up to 5-inch screen from edge to edge.

Designers of AatmaStudio, had previously submitted a concept iPad three laser-guided , Apple engineers planted one more interesting idea. Their next generation iPhone able to bring myself inoperable. This feature is designed to make the theft of "fruit" of mobile phones an exercise in futility.

The principle of operation of this function is that if someone finds your mobile phone, locked four-digit password, the user is given three attempts to enter the secret combination. In that case, if the correct password is entered, the built-Voice Assistant Siri will report an attacker, he made a mistake and will lead the unit inoperable.

Thus, the developers of the concept believe that when the last user will get an iPhone with such a function, with the theft of smartphones, at least the production of Apple, will be eliminated.

Smartphones + Driving + Women = More Disturbing than Men

The world of smart phones continues to make progress towards the use of the phone in your car with both Apple and Siri Android with voice control is a valuable aid to non-distracted driving. Dissemination and use of such systems, together with the use of the headset, however, are not likely to bring benefits to the statistical guidance and education while it is still necessary to use these means here is a survey that goes to deepen their own behavior by car.

 

The study of the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety, which published the results of the research organized by taking as a sample 50 families of North Caroline and observing the behavior of teenagers.

15% of the video recordings analyzed contained distractions to the guide, caused in most cases just so loved by the mobile phone.

Although the sample is not likely to generate statistics "universal" element found in the research is the most inclination to the distraction of girls (twice that of boys).

Smartphone and mobile phones are the leading cause of distraction in the car, followed by food and drink and "try to achieve something in the car", maybe a lighter fell under the seat or in a map pocket on the passenger side.

What do you think? It 'true that women are more distracted by the phone in your car than men?

The United States again prosecution the Siri advertising false propaganda

Following last month, a New York, USA users sued Apple Siri false propaganda that the two have a U.S. iPhone 4S users this week sued Apple Siri voice assistant advertising containing a false deceptive, joint and many other users of the class action . The lawsuit pointed out that Siri function description of Apple in the U.S. broadcast the Siri television advertising in the wrong and deceptive, such as TV commercials in the Siri can help people to make an appointment to find restaurants, and even learning the guitar or rock songs, these features only need people to and Siri dialogue, in the ad can be easily achieved.

The plaintiff pointed out that the actual use of Siri's not like advertising it, Siri will listen to understand your questioning, there will be a long delay will give the wrong answer. The plaintiff said he bought the iPhone 4S in December last year, and now he and other iPhone 4S user feel hurt and look forward to seek compensation. Apple's recent iPhone 4S advertising as a selling point to Siri, a recent survey shows that 87% of iPhone 4S every month Siri is. As for the really easy to use is another thing a child, but fortunately Siri in beta, let us something to look forward.

Why are left without a new iPad Siri

Until the day of presentation of the new iPad appeared on the Internet rumors about the new Tablet PC Apple. It became clear that the device will display Retina, but whether it is based onA5X processor or A6, remained doubtful. In addition there were questions about the support networks of LTE and the amount of RAM. Whether it is thicker? As it would be called - iPad 3 or iPad HD? (Regarding the latter issue, many make a mistake, the tablet has been called simply - iPad).

However, the fact that the iPad will be the third generation of Siri, no one doubted. That's why the fact that the voice assistant is not included in the box of the new device, was the biggest disappointment for the users.

Why Apple has refused to Siri iPad?

It all comes down to two basic points. First, for the normal functioning of the Siri need a permanent connection to the Internet. But the tablet is, unfortunately, does not provide such opportunities to their owners, unlike iPhone 4S, which has in any modification of a built-in 3G-modem. With it, Siri can always contact the Voice server Apple to find answers.

The problem with iPad is that the company produces two versions of the tablet, one of which supports only Wi-Fi, and the second - a 3G and LTE. Thus the device can not rely on a persistent connection to the network. Siri users on the new tablet would have to act on principle - there is a connection there, and Siri, which complicates the situation where a person is away from home or on vacation.

On the one hand, Apple representatives could explain to the public that Siri will not work without an Internet connection. On the other hand - such solutions do not fit into the overall concept of Cupertino. Either everything is working perfectly and for all, or not at all. While on the other hand, if, for example, iPhone 4S does not have access to the Internet, the application states that can not function at the moment. But such cases are very rare.

But even if we imagine for a moment that the developers have gone to such a move, there is another reason for the lack of Siri in tablets iPad - it just stopped working. Someone may try to challenge such an assumption, but the fact remains. The beta version of voice assistant less intelligent and efficient than they were five months ago, at the time of launch.

Do not believe me? This fact was noted by Steve Wozniak, co-founder of Cupertino corporation.

"Before, I asked Siri:« What are five largest lakes in California, "and the answer followed immediately. Now these questions, it just ignores it. Or this: "What are a prime that is greater than 87", and then you can expect a response. Now, instead of numbers of lakes and issued a list of real estate. Now you can ask a hundred times to dial the phone number given bar and the question will remain unanswered, "- said Woz.

And indeed, the first version of Siri could answer almost any question. With it you can easily find out the average increase in American men. Now she calls a very high mountain, and the number of men living in the United States. Even those who are not experts in this field claim that Siri was much smarter than immediately after the release. Now, its status changed from beta to alpha.

The fact that Siri was stupid, can be explained by the fact that the developers have difficulty in fitting the servers under high load of users iPhone 4S. Today, it is sent so many requests that the creators can not allocate less capacity for the calculation of the responses that resulted in a decrease in its level of intelligence. This is how to weaken the power of chess computer, which is less thinking about his next step.

Now imagine what would happen to after the market will leave 60 million of new plates, if now there are difficulties when dealing only with the iPhone 4S.

It is hoped that one day the iPad users will be able to still talk to Siri. However, it will not happen today.

If Siri is a very passionate sexy big beauty

In the latest issue of the "Big Bang" in, Siri is no longer a voice application, transformed into a beauty in the passionate broadcasting, perhaps this is the desire of many people,

but the film's leading man for the Siri beauty Some over-the human, up to ask whether make love, male pig because speechless and painful, or because of disillusionment and frustration it?

iOS 5.0.2 fixes problems with the battery, iOS 5.1 will Siri «smarter»

Similar problems with signal reception iPhone 4, discovered the new device in June last year, the latest on the iPhone 4S dual-core processor suffers from rapid discharge of the battery .However, unlike the previous generation smart phone, a feature iPhone 4S caused defects in the device software .

To fix this error, Apple last week released an update iOS 5.0.1 , which did not lead to the desired result. Now engineers are actively working on the following system updates, designed to solve the problem of storage "apple" flagship.

According to the publication Mace Kopf, now Cupertino Empire develops two separate update to the operating system iOS 5, one of which must remedy the defect, causing a rapid discharge of the battery and the second - to make "smarter" personal secretary Siri.

Citing anonymous sources in the company, the publication states that the release of the firmware iOS 5.0.2 will be held "not later than one week," and completely correct errors associated with the catastrophic decline in battery life iOS-devices.

As for the next big update for iOS, then, according to a source Mace Kopf, it aims to upgrade the intellectual assistant Siri. This is supposed to be firmware iOS 5.1, and it will not until next year, as the developments in the field of artificial intelligence Siri «require significant financial costs."

In iOS 5.1 for smartphone users iPhone 4S will advanced management phone. For example, Siri will understand commands like "take a picture," "capture video", "turn on / off Wi-Fi», «on / off Bluetooth" and many others.

«IOS 5.0.2 will be released soon and fix the errors with the battery. Firmware will most likely before the end of next week. At least Apple is working on this update.

Siri + Mac OS X Combine Next Year

Hardly anyone would argue that Siri will always be part of only one functional iPhone 4S with varying degrees of success working on porting the speaking assistant on the iPhone 4, iPod Touch last generation, and other modern device, and the company will integrate Apple predictably novelty this year in their next smartphones and tablet.

Limited to whether the Cupertino only portable gadgets or implemented Siri in its computer operating system - that is the question. On it volunteered to answer one of the founders of the famous American community Digg Kevin Rose (Kevin Rose).

Rumors: Siri will be available on Mac OS X next year

A short message known internet figure is only a rumor, not confirmed by any facts, but it looks as some thought. It is logical that the developers of Apple in the next year or two "emptied" functional Siri, expand the list of the supported languages. After the assistant can perform a number of more advanced tasks (eg, open and integrated third-party applications, adjust lighting, etc.), he must get over to Mac OS X.

As such, the Siri will replace the existing voice aid to like Macs and become part of Spotlight to find anything and everything on your computer. Here is the next Mac OS update global X - AirPlay Mirroring, IMessage and loved by many Siri.
