A more natural Cortana

When we talk about recent times of evolution, we don't talk so much about _hardware_ (which also) but about _software_. It is increasingly important to improve the user experience with each and every one of the devices that surround us and in this sense the personal assistants that have been developed have taken on more and more prominence.

We are talking about Siri, Google Now (now Google Assistant) and in the case of Microsoft, Cortana. Very useful depending on which cases they continue to experience a problem such as lack of naturalness when it comes to communicating with them It is true that they have evolved remarkably but they still have a long way to go good way to go and that is what Microsoft seems to be looking for with its patent.

"

Seeking a more human experience the developers behind Cortana are working on improving the expressions of her assistant. Some expressions that adapt to each moment, to each circumstance as can happen in the case of any person and in this sense the greeting is a good gateway."

Because we don't greet the same depending on the moment or the situation, the development team wants Cortana to adopt a more natural attitude in this regard . It is the first contact with the assistant and if from the outset it gives us the impression that we are talking to a machine... we are not off to a very good start.

With the new patent it is sought that depending on the moment Cortana greets us in one way or another A greeting that could be something like a personalized reception for which a greater knowledge of that intelligence about the person would be needed.If it is your birthday, if you have an important appointment, an event to attend as well as your tastes, hobbies or weather conditions. Personal circumstances that can influence our intercommunication and make it more natural.

For now this is a patent. A path that you follow and reach a successful conclusion can offer remarkable results that help improve the use of Cortana and perhaps other assistants. Let us remember in this sense that this type of _software_ is increasingly in demand by companies that see it as the door to reach the user when the megapixels of the cameras or the power of the processors is no longer enough. A fact that can be perceived in the purchase of Viv by Samsung, in the efforts of Google with Assistant or Apple with Siri.
