Thanks to ChatGPT, the AI buzz is everywhere. However, don't let OpenAI's rockstar AI trick you into ditching the trusty Google Assistant or Siri on your phone.
“Hey Google, Arbab!” I utter these lines to Google Assistant, which automatically takes me to my Twitter DMs with my friend Arbab. That chain of actions happens because I customized one such shortcut for Google Assistant on my phone. Putting the same prompt before ChatGPT, I get the predictably disappointing response: “I’m sorry, but as an AI language model, I do not have access to personal contact information such as phone numbers or email addresses.
Ease of access and unmatched versatility Before we get to the nitty-gritty in terms of capabilities and limitations, let’s start with the most fundamental requisite: ease of access. You can summon Google Assistant right on the lock screen of your phone. Of course, you need to enable the feature manually, but once you’ve set it up, it’s all a walk in the park. Amazon’s Alexa and Apple’s Siri also offer the same convenience.
Assistant flexes control beyond just a phone ChatGPT has the entire world’s knowledge at its disposal, yet, it can’t do meaningful stuff natively on your phone. Of course, ChatGPT can write your assignment for you, whip up a terrific resume, and even help with your code. But those aren’t things you do every day. ChatGPT can’t pull up your meeting calendar for the next day, switch off the bedroom light, or call your friend on an app of your choice.
Easing lives, one shortcut at a time Assistants might sound dumb because they don’t give you the kind of verbose responses that the likes of ChatGPT and Google’s Bard can surprise you with. But that’s only convenient to a certain extent. When it comes to getting real work done, these on-device assistants race miles ahead of ChatGPT.
For example, a command like “Hey Google, book an Uber” will launch the Uber app and land you on the page where you only have to enter your destination in order to hail a ride. If you prefer Siri, Apple’s assistant offers you more versatility and an even higher level of command control with multi-step routines and support for every single app installed on your iPhone.
