Rumors are swirling. According to reports, Google may be developing an app
that uses artificial intelligence to allow users – as they chat with friends - to
contact a chatbot to answer questions or conduct searches. Apparently, this app will compete with
Facebook’s similar technology.
At this time, not much is known about the details of the app
or when it might become available. One
scenario that might play out, however, would have a user interacting online with
friends when a question or issue arose that would benefit from a Google search.
Conceivably, the user would be able to contact the bot on the fly and continue
the interaction while the bot conducted the search.
Stay tuned.
