Part 6/9:
Rather than solely improving Bing, Shapiro advocates for reinvention of Microsoft's AI assistant endeavors. He reminisces about Cortana, which has been a long-standing but underutilized project. The suggestion is simple but impactful: augment Cortana with ChatGPT’s technology.
By giving Cortana a natural, friendly voice, and integrating voice recognition via tools like OpenAI's Whisper, Microsoft could develop a truly useful AI assistant capable of functioning seamlessly across smartphones, tablets, and smart home devices. He even humorously proposes the name Jarvis, evoking Tony Stark’s AI, to reinforce the vision of an intelligent, conversational assistant.
