How can it be that Apple didn't have a 3-5 year non compete and first right of refusal clause with these guys? Amazing.
Hyperbole much?Another nail in Apple's coffin. Apple has been failing now on a daily basis. Glad I don't have any Apple stock. It will soon be worthless!
I like how Samsung bought the tech a few months ago, and they are already ready to push into Touch Wiz / Grace in the Galaxy S8. Considering what a poor job Samsung normally do with their software, I have a very hard time believing this will be a hit for them.
Nevertheless, people don't seem to care. There has never been any doubt that Touch Wiz / Grace is one of the lesser software stacks added on-top of Android by manufactures. But they still sell the highest amount of high-end Android phones by a long shot. So users don't seem to care, they all care for the hardware and not the software.
I don't get it. Why doesn't Samsung embrace Google's own AI rather than spending money on developing their own brand of AI? It took years of research and development for Google Assistant and Siri to become what it has become now (though Siri is still pretty poor). What makes Samsung think they can better it? I think it would have been better if Samsung spent their money elsewhere rather than AI development.

lol siri, the thing is even more useless than a kids sandpit in the middle of sahara desert.
Exactly. Apple needs to step their .... up.Step your game up Apple! Don't be like Microsoft was with mobile, get on AI now!
Apple doesn't exist in a vacuum.
Works for me.lol siri, the thing is even more useless than a kids sandpit in the middle of sahara desert.

I don't see Apple integtrating other companies voice control products into iOS without some kind of compensation or marketing agreement. And the same is true for Google, Amazon, MS. These are all competitors to each other in some form.
None of this stuff is actually "artificial intelligence". It's voice commands for actions instead of keyboard/mouse/touch input for actions.
So they're going to integrate this in less than a year and it's going to compete with Google Assistant? Sounds like a recipe for disaster. Hasn't Samsung learned their lesson about rushing things to market?
That's what I was thinking. They just made this acquisition. They are reported to still be investigating the cause of the explosions in their Note 7's.So they're going to integrate this in less than a year and it's going to compete with Google Assistant?
