(Telecompaper) Google has presented a range of new products at its annual developers conference, Google I/O, with a strong focus on artificial intelligence features. Google Assistant is its new personal assistant software, that responds to voice commands and questions. Google Assistant will be integrated into new products to help users make Google searches and complete online tasks. One of the first products to feature the software is Google Home, a voice-activated speaker that can stream music and also help manage daily tasks such as calendar integration, Google searches or interaction with smart home products like the thermostat made by Google's Nest Labs. The other new product using Google Assistance is the messaging app Allo. In addition to integrating Google searches and information in chats, the Allo app differs from other messaging apps with its 'Smart Reply' feature. This can suggest standard replies to messages on context and learning the user's patterns.
