How Artificial Intelligence Will Soon Change Your Life Posted on : Feb 20 - 2018

Earlier this year, Pooya Abka attended the 2018 Consumer Electronics Show and walked away feeling validated. CES was all about Google Assistant this year and he knew he was definitely on to something in the artificial intelligence space.

You see, Abka is the founder of Idemandu, an AI agent that learns and adapts to your needs over time. As Abka explained to me, we "created the first AI agent that can understand customers' service needs over voice, connect them to vetted service providers instantly, and learn about their personal preferences with time."

On top of that, they partnered with Google Assistant "to be the ultimate destination for service needs; from walking dogs to marketing businesses, even defending rights, and much more." So, seeing Google make a huge push with Google Assistant at this year's CES and attempt to take on Amazon Alexa was music to Abka's ears.

I spoke with Abka about Idemandu's mission and what the overall AI landscape means for us on a personal level. Given that he sees a lot of these technological advances taking place in a few years, you may want to find an AI agent that can take notes for you because you'll want to remember this.

"Hey Idemandu, could you ..."

Abka's company is more than just another AI agent. They're attempting to change the way we get things done on a daily basis. This isn't simply asking Alexa about the weather. Rather, it's like having your very own personal assistant.

Consider the following scenario Abka gave me that a typical Idemandu user could experience. As he explains, "... in less than a year, you may have the following conversation with your Idemandu Assistant while driving back from work:

You: "Hey Idemandu, could you ask my massage therapist to come to my place tonight preferably after 8? I'm feeling an annoying pain in my neck."

Idemandu: "Sure, but your therapist is not available tonight. I found another very similar therapist who is available, would you like to see him at 8 pm tonight? If not, I can book your own therapist for tomorrow at 8:30 pm."

You: "Okay, tell him to come tonight."

Idemandu: "Okay, he'll be there. I already briefed him about your pain."

Here, the hard work is done for you -- and you don't have to search for another therapist to have that neck pain worked out. In fact, he already knows about it. View More
