Even today we are beginning to see this new form of technology emerging. Aside from Apple's Siri, Google has also developed Google Now - a system that helps organise your calendar and "brings you the information you want, when you need it". Microsoft has launched Cortana, a "personal assistant for Windows 10" and even Facebook created their response to Siri and Cortana - 'M' - a virtual assistant that helps book you restaurants, holidays and even offers suggestions on what presents to buy.
I can't help but feel a little bit apprehensive of all these new personal assistance. I mean, how much are they going to know about us, and what are they doing with that information? What ever happened to organising our lives through a tangible calendar? I guess we have to get with the times.
