Google Allo is updated with its assistant in Spanish

The intelligent messaging application Google Allo already has its voice assistant, Google Assistant, in Spanish. It has also been updated for both Android and iOS.

This is how a new reinforced competitor for Apple's Siri or Amazon's Echo arrives, and it does so entirely in Spanish. This virtual assistant learns as we use it within this messaging app. The only problem is that we can only interact in text, at the moment it does not have voice recognition in Spanish.

Google Assistant, or the Google Assistant, is a kind of virtual butler that through conversations manages to understand what we need and it is advancing thanks to machine learning and artificial intelligence.

In fact, another of Google Allo's options is that we can respond to messages quickly and without having to write anything with their intelligent answers Based on the context, if they ask us a question with a simple answer, it will appear on the screen for us to press a “Yes” or a “no”. In case they send us a photo, it will also look for a related answer.

Google has announced that smart responses will reach our devices in the coming weeks, an option that the more we use the more it will learn and which also differentiates the Assistant from other virtual assistants.

How Google Assistant works on Google Allo

The Google Assistant is just that, a tool that we will always have at hand and that will help us even in making decisions. We can do several things, from asking you questions to tell us what the weather is going to be like, when our soccer team is playing, or asking you for information on any subject. We can even ask you to translate things for us.

If we bet on entertainment, as happens in any other virtual assistant, writing @google in any Google Allo chat with our contacts, we can ask them to tell us a joke -warning, they may hurt your sensitivity how bad they are-, or even ask him to find us games to have a fun time.

Also valid for our daily organization, because if we have to organize an appointment we can ask you to set a reminder. Or until the alarm to wake us up the next morning And as always, tell us the weather forecast.

After requesting any type of information, Google Assistant will provide us with suggestions. That is, if we ask for the weather of a day in Concrete will later ask us if we want to know what he will do on the weekend. And the same thing with jokes, being able to enter a loop and turn the conversation into a monologue.

In Google's own statement they give an example of how virtual assistants have changed. If we used keywords before to ask for the weather what I would do in Paris, something that would be like 'weather, Paris, weekend' now that can be changed to: “Will I need a jacket this weekend?” Thanks to the location, Google Assistant will know where you are or will ask you where you will be those days.
