The AI assistant market is booming, attracting technology giants such as Amazon, Google, Apple and Microsoft to compete to launch digital assistants. And the reason why digital assistants are so hot, including the easier use of natural language interfaces, personalized services for users, helps boost productivity, and has a wealth of knowledge base. According to VentureBeat reports, the Statista data show that the digital assistants market will double in 2018, up to $12 billion by 2020 and with 1.6 billion active users. The reason for this is that the natural language interface of the digital assistant is more intuitive than the network or mobile interface, without a drop-down menu or check box, which can be queried naturally by the user opening or sending a text message. Thanks to the improvements in conversational speech recognition and natural language processing engines, and the low rate of error innovation, digital assistants have a considerable degree of understanding of natural queries and have learned to identify users. For example, Amazon recently announced that Alexa has been able to identify 10 of users ' voices, and Alexa devices have been able to provide personalized results for each user based on their usage habits. Personalized personalized is important for any digital product, and digital assistants promote personal advancement to a new level. First, the virtual agent uses the AI function to interpret the user's input and understand its behavior, and to use machine learning to improve its response, but also to provide more relevant options to save user time. Digital assistants also try to resolve the paradox that often leads to a decline in customer satisfaction, abandoning shopping options (paradox of choice). Many retailers, such as EBay, Wal-Mart and Whole Foods, are looking for AI shopping assistants to help customers select products, such as personalized recommendations on a newsletter platform, and narrow the range of choices based on the user's favorite jeans style. A wealth of knowledge based digital assistants with integrated capabilities, flexibility and self-learning capabilities can access large amounts of data, provide insights, and store specific areas of content in consolidated databases. Moreover, while market competition is fierce, prospective market participants, such as Google and Amazon, still choose to collaborate rather than drying to strengthen their services. Amazon and Microsoft have announced that they will allow both Alexa and Cortana AI assistants to exchange. At the same time, Cortana's Open skill access kit allows the brand to expand its functionality to reach out to customers behind 500 million of Cortana devices. New connectivity digital assistants and things networking (IoT) innovation, allowing devices, users and businesses to communicate to a new level. The BI intelligence data shows that there will be more than 24 billion IoT devices worldwide by 2020. These devices will cover transportation, utilities, smart homes, healthcare, retailing and other areas. Many IoT systems use independent AI assistants as connection points with customers and devices. Increase productivity digital assistants are developed to perform routine and repetitive tasks for people. For example, Ai new company X.ai's conference scheduling assistant Amy can read e-mail content automatically scheduling meetings to improve enterprise productivity. And Amy will soon be able to expand its coverage and learn how to extract data from Slack, Alexa and micro-letters. The digital assistant Viv can connect people, homes and cars, and perform multiple tasks more intelligently than a single functional assistant. Clearly, each of the advantages of digital assistants still has room to grow. On the one hand, the development of voice assistants is synchronized with the development of AI, IoT, autopilot technology and emerging interfaces based on text, audio, image and touch signals. Intelligent assistants have become a practical tool in today's High-tech environment, and the normal functioning of a new generation of devices, self-driving, smart homes and smart cities has become indispensable. On the other hand, AI assistants are the intermediary between people and innovation. This technology can help people adapt to changing digital space and adopt technology in their fields of specialization and personal areas.
