Sometimes, although I have to admit that not very often, I have missed being able to write to Crab not to use the voice. When it is the case, I have invoked his presence, I have made an incompressible noise and, after he tells me that he has not understood me, I have edited the text that he has misunderstood, everything in a low voice or otherwise it would not make sense . All this could change according to the latest license of those of Cupertino.
The patent has been named "Virtual assistant in a communication session»And describes a system in which users of iMessage o Messages can invoke Siri from a chat to answer relevant questions in the conversation, complete schedules and provide other information.
Apple wants Siri to get into our conversations
In one of the examples that Apple gives, two users are chatting and they bring Siri into the conversation as they would include any other contact. Using a semantic analysis, the AI would detect when it could help fill in the conversation with relevant information, such as finding a nearby establishment and saying how long it would take for users to get there.
Initially, Answers only appear in the chat of the user who invokes the wizard, but Siri could understand when it is important for general chat. Another example would be that a user could ask "Siri, help us to schedule a meeting", the assistant could compare the calendars of all the users present in the chat and propose a date and time when everyone is free. With the day and time chosen, Siri could schedule the appointment on everyone's calendars. When a user invited Siri to their chat, the rest of the participants would receive a notification asking them if they want to do the same, to which we could allow or deny their entry (it will not be that they make us meet someone if we do not want to ...).
As we always say, that a patent has been filed does not mean that we are going to see it come true, but what this patent describes is a artificial intelligence system very interesting that Apple should use to take a step forward. I do think we will see it in future versions of iOS and macOS. And you?
