With the backing of supporters as varied as the CIA, Samsung, Intel, and one of the biggest wireless carriers in the world, MindMeld launched its conversational AI platform today.
MindMeld’s AI, which has been referred to as “Siri on steroids,” is sometimes considered more advanced than other voice-enabled intelligent assistants.
The first generation of AI-powered assistants failed to live up to the hype, according to the company.
“Deep-Domain Conversational AI promises to power a new generation of AI assistants which can streamline common daily tasks such as placing a take-out order at a local restaurant, booking a flight or hotel reservation, creating a service appointment at an auto repair shop or doctor’s office, or finding retail store and product information,” the company said in a statement shared with VentureBeat.
