Google I/O: Pichai unveils 'Google Assistant' to help with daily tasks
San Francisco: Taking on intelligent virtual friends like Apple's Siri and Microsoft's Cortana, Indian-born Sundar Pichai has announced "Google Assistant" which will help you with daily tasks like booking movie tickets. Pichai also unveiled "Google Home" - a voice-activated product that brings "Google Assistant" to any room in your house, a new messaging app called "Allo" and video calling feature "Duo" as the company kicked off "Google I/O," its annual developer conference in Mountain View, California, on Wednesday. The messaging app "Allo" comes complete with the "Google Assistant" so you can interact with it directly in your chats, either one-on-one or with friends. Google also previewed "Android Wear 2.0", including a revamped user experience and stand alone apps that run right on the watch, no matter where your phone is or even if it's off.
