For once I’m not sure I agree... none of the “assistant” names (and the value of their name / personality is dubious IMHO) have the power of being a long established verb. It wouldn’t take much of a change in invocation to make “googling” a voice function.

David, thank you! Great points. You know this is a tricky area since the use of speech and all of it’s emotional connections have changed the interface paradigm. You can experiment with mood and emotion with a significant other to see slight nuanced changes impact mood attitude.

I know what you mean though. It’s two paradigms that will probably meet in the middle. “Alexa, google the best recipe for sea bass” is useful and personal. A Google device probably knows you might need it from your Whole Foods shopping receipt :)

David, indeed! Fully agree. Interesting times on this new frontier...
