AI BASED VIRTUAL ASSISTANT
This study is aimed at designing an AI based virtual assistant that acts as a human language interface through automation and voice recognition based interaction from human based on Python to minimise human effort and time while performing a task that imitates a human assistant to carry out any particular task.
Abstract
Artificial Intelligence has been fast emerging as a noteworthy technology that has the capability to revolutionize the cognitive behaviour of humans by simulating their intelligence for the betterment of the mankind. AI consists of multi-functional technologies which plays a significant role in our everyday lives like home automation where controlling the computer and performing multiple tasks using voice commands to remote monitoring and control activities. This study is aimed at designing an AI based virtual assistant that acts as a human language interface through automation and voice recognition based interaction from human based on Python . The instructions for the Voice Assistant are implemented as per the user requirement .The most successful Speech recognition software’s like Alexa, Siri, etc has been the brainchild of AI technology. Speech Recognition API in python converts speech into text thereby sending and receiving the emails without typing, searching the keywords in Google without opening the browser, and carrying out many other tasks like playing music etc., has been made possible through the help of this AI based virtual Assistant software. In the present scenario, innovation in digital technologies has resulted in increased effectiveness and accurateness of several tasks that would have required large amount of human effort and resources. Through utilization of AI in every domain, remarkable transformations have resulted in reduced time and labour. Thus AI based voice assistant software offers highly accurate and efficient solution to minimise human effort and time while performing a task that imitates a human assistant to carry out any particular task. Muti-functional aspects like voice commands, sending emails, reading PDF, sending text on WhatsApp, opening a command prompt or IDE, playing music, performing keyword searches in Wikipedia , giving weather forecast, desktop reminders of your choice etc are some of the major operations that can be performed by the developed AI based virtual assistant which also possess certain basic conversational abilities. ,pyttsx3, Speech Recognition, Date time, Wikipedia, Smtplib, pywhatkit, pyjokes, pyPDF2, pyautogui, pyQt etc are some of the tools utilised for the project. A live GUI has been designed for interacting with the AI virtual Assistant as it presents an elegant design framework to carry out the necessary conversation.
