&quot;This is software writing itself&quot;. Welcome to the 70&#x27;s.<p>The speaker comes across as poor in my opinion.<p>He&#x27;s doing marketing, not informing the audience, and he&#x27;s not even that interesting.<p>He&#x27;s saying a ton of stuff which is completely unsupported by reality.<p>Assistants are the next paradigm shift? Have you tried to use Siri in a car? Or at all? It&#x27;s a joke.<p>Weather examples? Show me something I use more than once a week.<p>Show me something actually <i>hard</i> that requires intelligence. Show me a recommendation service which does not suck. Show me an assistant that figures out something nice to do this weekend, based on location inferred by my plane tickets, weather, my taste, and what&#x27;s available.<p>Show me an assistant that <i>shops for the cheapest flowers</i>, not force me to use the service of the app maker&#x27;s choice.<p>Please, let&#x27;s stop the &quot;wow I can speak to my telephone, and it tells me the weather&quot; bore. Please.
