US technology giant company, Google has announced the launch of various new features to its voice-based assistant that will be rolling out in the coming days.
One of the features coming to Google Assistant will allow the users to teach the Assistant to say their name correctly.
Users will be able to tell Google Assistant exactly how to pronounce their name. The Assistant will also understand the person whom you are referring to when you say their name out loud.
The feature is set to start rolling out soon. Google has reassured that it will not keep any recording of your voice, so there is nothing to worry about in that regard.
The feature will first be available in English and will support other languages soon.
“Names matter, and it’s frustrating when you’re trying to send a text or make a call and Google Assistant mispronounces or simply doesn’t recognize a contact. We want Assistant to accurately recognize and pronounce people’s names as often as possible, especially those that are less common.” Google said in its latest blog post explaining why names are important.
