Standards for Personal Assistants

  • session proposer: Debbie Dahl
  • This session will talk about what's needed to support personal assistant functionality within the Open Web Platform.
  • summary: There are several proprietary personal assistants in common use, including Siri, Cortana, Google Now, Amazon Alexa and Facebook M. Similar, intelligent assistant functionality for specific enterprises is also being provided by other platforms, although these platforms are less commonly known. What is needed to create similar kinds of intelligent assistant applications with the Open Web Platform? In the discussion we ended up focusing on semantic assistance, for example, intelligent interpretation of web pages and displaying them in a way that's consistent with the user's preferences. This is independent of the specific modalities the user uses to access the information.
