Ahmedabad. August 20, 2019, Tuesday

In general, the disputes between the people may have been stirred up. Science has gone so far that such a contest has begun in Artificial Intelligence (AI). Google recently participated in a competition between Artificial Intelligence in Google, Apple and Amazon.

Google's AI Google Assistant has defeated Amazon's Alexa and Apple's Siri. Google Assistant gave the most accurate answer to the questions asked on the smartphone. Research firm Loop Ventures concluded in its annual test that Google Assistant understood almost every question and answered 92.9 percent of the answers.

The team of researchers asked more than 800 questions to Google Assistant, Alexa, and Siri, the most popular digital assistants among users. Google Assistant gave about 93 percent correct answer while Siri gave 83 percent and Alexa gave 80 percent correct answer.

The test consisted of five phases in which Google was beaten by Siri in command (responding to users' commands). Siri phone work such as calling, texting, email, etc. was more effective than Google Assistant and Alexa in the work. A similar contest was also held in July 2018 with Google Assistant 86% while Siri 79% and Alexa 61%.

The research team said the test was done on a smart phone rather than a smart speaker. According to the team, digital assistants are commonly used in noisy environments. This type of environment was also kept in the test. However, Microsoft's Cortana was not included in the test.

The test included Siri used on iOS 12.4, Google Assistant running Android 9 Pi, and Alexa used on the iOS app, with Google Assistant taking the lead. Speaking of understanding the questions, Google Assistant answered all 80 questions correctly, while Siri made the mistake of understanding two questions while Alexa misunderstood a question.
