"Siri" Co-Creator is Working on a Virtual Assistant Capable of Anything

There's No Question that, Apple's Virtual Assistant Comes in Handy When you Need Information Quickly. And Now, One of "Siri's" Creators is Working on a More Advanced Form of AI that Goes Far Beyond the Current iPhone Option. Viv Labs Says, its Personal Assistant will Possess a Limitless Tool Set because, the Software Can Teach itself. This Means that, in Addition to the Regular Ol' Search, the Artificial Intelligence will also be Able to Perform Tasks like Booking Reservations Based on Openings in your Schedule and More. "Siri is chapter one of a much longer, bigger story", Dag Kittlaus, Viv's Co-Founder Who also Worked on Apple's Assistant, Tells Wired. Bypassing the Need for Coders (and Constraints), Viv Generates its Own Program to Answer Queries and Complete Tasks in Seconds. Once the System is "Trained" to Understand the Vocabulary of a Subject, the Company Aims to Sort through Loads of Data to Not Only Lend a Hand but, Anticipate What we'll Need Next.
