Meet Cortana: Windows Phone's New Voice Assistant




Microsoft Cortana is an upcoming Windows Phone intelligent personal assistant on the Windows Phone 8.1 operating system available on an opt-in basis.[2] Its name comes from Cortana, the artificial intelligence character in the Halo series, with Jen Taylor, the character's voice actress, returning to voice the personal assistant.[3]

Microsoft Cortana has been demonstrated for the first time by Microsoft corporate vice president Joe Belfiore at the Microsoft BUILD Developer Conference (April 2-4, 2014) in San Francisco.[1] It has been launched as a key ingredient of Microsoft's planned "makeover" of the future operating systems for Windows Phone, Windows, as well as Xbox One.[2] Cortana has been available to users under WP 8.1 Developer Preview for the first time.[3] (from Wikipedia)
