“The original vision of Siri was to be a truly personal virtual assistant – able to take over tasks completely – but the technology of the time was not enough.
This vision is finally possible now thanks to advances at SRI , the broader community and the Ninjatech team building that next generation assistant today.”
Todd Stavish
Managing Director at SRI Ventures
