Google’s response to Apple’s Siri: Buy Cleversense

… Cleversense, a learning AI with a natural language processing front-end – and the developer of the popular Alfred personal assistant app – has been sold to Google for an undisclosed amount.
… Fear that Apple’s Siri “could provide a new paradigm for searching the Web that circumvents Google’s search engine and ads” may be the reason.
… The first language processing front-end made available to developers by either Apple or Google will be a windfall for human-robot communication systems development.
