From the short time I spent with Google Assistant, I really enjoyed the experience of using it. I started with a question: Who is the captain of Indian cricket team? It replied saying “Virat Kohli”. My next question was: Who is his girlfriend? It replied “Anushka Sharma.” I immediately asked who is her father? It replied “Ajay Kumar Sharma”. It is intelligent and super interactive.
