Google Experiments is a collection of many creative ways to use the company’s tools and resources. The latest “experiment” launched by Google is called Google Voice Experiments, offering a variety of fun and interesting ways to play with voice-controlled Google Assistant using an automatic meme-generator to a way to compose music with just voice commands.
Google has been working hard to spread its eponymous AI assistant over the past year. After launching its Amazon Echo competitor, Google Home in 2016, the company then offered the assistant far and wide by integrating into all new Android smartphones.
It has been designed to engage new developers into creating innovative and novel uses for the system while the Voice Experiments is an interesting illustration of the growing sophistication in Google’s voice command technology. All four of the experiments highlight how easy the creative resources like Dialogflow are to use.
Probably Story Speaker is the most useful experiment as it pairs up with the Google Doc and allows your story to be read aloud instantly. Further it also has built-in template enabling users for the creation of Choose Your Own Adventure-style stories while it can be presented to the listeners with a fork in the narrative road and make their own decision.
MixLab is possibly the easiest music composition system users ever experienced as designed for responding to user simple command like “Play me some funky piano,” the use can add different instruments layers from available several hundred programmed options. The system has its own compositions to respond the simple request like “Play me something.”
The two other launched experiments are interesting as Mystery Animal is basically a 20-questions games while Meme Buddy is a bizarre “dank meme” generator. Using meme generator user can direct the system to find a photo and then suggesting a caption, before Meme Buddy instantly generates that meme.
With Voice Experiment now it’s clear that surely we are moving to near to the goal of AI assistants that can respond to conversational directions and very least user can instantly generate viral memes with a simple voice command. You can check out Meme Buddy and Story Speaker in the videos below.
