Microsoft has recently revealed Cortana, their digital assistant which will bring Windows Phone into the modern are. BlackBerry is also lagging behind, but a leak seems to indicate that they are also working on their own solution to compete with Apple‘s Siri and Google Now.
The leak is that of a new build of BlackBerry still in beta phase, and on the updated OS there is an application called “œIntelligent Assistant.“ Initial reports are that it doesn‘t quite work yet, and it is hard to tell how well it will be integrated with the entire operating system.
Let‘s hope the beleaguered company can come up with a worthy competitor, as it needs every bit of ingenuity and luck it can find to survive.
Do you think the Canadian company can survive? Let us know in the comments below.
