Google Assistant Capable of Specializing News Feeds for Individual Households: How did they get so smart?




A Google Assistant Read Your Mind? Here’s What Happened When it Did!

Google Assistants purchased and placed inside homes, Google Assistants places in vacation properties or Google Assistants places in an office are capable of delivering rich content through voice commands and the availability of internet connectivity. Each household with a Google Assistant inside it will find Google Assistants come with new tools. One them has really made an instant impact. Google Assistant can create responses to inquiries that are individualized and rich in dynamic content.  This new form of News Feed appear to be where Google’s Assistant and its Artificial Intelligence (AI) is taking us. They use the information they get from us communicating with them to develop personalized responses that have really impressed the market. The missing link is that listening to our directions slash inquiries slash search words to give us access to a rich environment of content from the distribution of specialized content means we are giving up our identity to the Google Assistant.

How Much of Me do you Want? Google Assistant Wants to Know You

Google Assistants gets asked a lot of question, which they respond to with pointed answers, but the owners of Goggle’s Assistant have reported both pros and cons of the device. One problem is users sometimes feel like they’re being watched. If you tend to believe there is someone watching you, having a Google Assistant may not be for you. The assistant is designed to listen for requests and subtly the information you give to the AI program, becomes tangible, relevant responses from a piece of technology that is coming into its own. When you think about your assistant listening in on your private discussions, you might think again about how your tiny device has so much relevant information about you, literally. There have been times when miscommunication with an assistant caused trauma to the owners. Sometimes technology gets out of hand; set boundaries before opening up.

So You Think You Want A Google Assistant. Google Assistant Comes With its Own Tools

What is happening today in households across the nation is Google’s Assistant is slowly learning the habits of family members it comes in contact with regularly and combining that knowledge to deliver specialized information focused on the likes and dislikes of a particular user. This gives Google a leg up on its competition. With the way companies are integrating intelligent technology, individuals should examine the habits of the machine and then check the habits of themselves. If you think Google Assistant is there just for you, the more research you do you’ll find that Google Assistants everywhere are learning everything they can about us in order to one day predetermine the likes and dislikes of its user. In order to do this, Google uses their AI technologies and machine learning capabilities of the Assistant to recognize the request, collect relevant information, and deliver it a way that the end user is capable of remaining efficient while obtaining information via Google’s Assistant. Google is introducing developer tools that help to target queries specifically based on content derived from online sources. Now publishers can highlight information specific to a certain subject matter like, “Hey Google, what’s going to happen tonight in the sky”? The device will now be able to crossover different content outlets to return snippets of all the information is had uncovered. This makes Google’s Assistant more able than ever. New tools to go along with new, directives make this Google Assistant just one level below full capabilities which will soon run unasked by the user. Google’s intent to be the easiest home device to use is now paired with Google’s goal of being the most useful assistant on the market.

Google and Amazon Play in the Sandbox of Content Curation

It’s been a battle between two enormous companies. Amazon and Google are mixing and matching devices with capabilities and what the end user is getting is a device with more capabilities than ever before. These two tech giants are producing their devices to be the most useful in home and office. Organizations like NPR and CNN have somewhat of a head start because these outlet are the go-to sites for news reports. It’s unfortunate to see how politics may play a major role in the news you are offered when you are looking to get news from Google’s Assistant. Sometimes you have to take what you get, but the future will have all news outlets vying for users’ ears. The amount of content you get from each article may be subjected to shortening of the message.

Google, Can You Highlight The News of the Day for Me? 

The reason the Google Assistant is making waves in this way is not in retrieving news for users, but how much of a particular article will it recite back. New, bold AI initiatives will give users the best of both world, size and function. The size of the news report you hear may be summarized, but you’ll have more time to hear more news when you accept the feature of Google’s Assistant news retrieval options. “Hey Google, is that everything”?

Introduction of Internet Streams (Pt 2)

Ask people who use the internet what they think of it today, and most will tell you that the think they know how to get around pretty well. The truth is, they really don't know what they're talking about. The next wave of internet savvy user will have more choice, closer relationships, and become better informed. The information they follow will be the information from friends who are connected and not only do they travel and use the internet for their own benefit, the broadcast a stream of their history as they go.

Portable, relevant, and digital, this stream of information will let friends and followers see what they saw, like it or not. The more social that the internet becomes, the more real the internet becomes. No longer will the flow of information be shaped by the writers, programmers, and businesses that promote it, but backing up each bit of information you can find on the internet, there will soon be a follow-up to the data. The follow-up comes from the websites and portals of streams that break down to each person who initiates a connection through one of the most popular and not so popular websites available today.

The practice is being used today on portable devices and desktops around the world. The most visited sites today are those that have hundreds of millions of users interacting with each other outside of business. The sites are using cookies and tracking software embedded in advertiser paid ads. So goes the way of the stream. Instead of a group of followers and fans leaving behind crumbs that others can find and follow, they will be reviewing and recommending not through words% but through actions. Traffic will be organically generated by a stream search bar which takes an excerpt of the information being viewed. Keywords will be used to find friends that share similar information and actively connect using a stream to interact with their friends. Here's an example of what I find most interesting about the whole stream thing. Imagine this: Sean Walsh is getting on the #25 train from the West Belt to Rice University in Houston. The trip takes forty two minutes and instead of cracking a book to study for his midterms he pulls his research pad out from his favorite rucksack, the on the had from his first year in high school. The leather is worn but it it reminds him of his parents, they always wanted him to excel in his studies and his pack proves that they are always on his side. With his pack on his lap and his research pad turned on and immediately he gets notification from his friends. Good morning Sean! Sarah is only other person from high school that goes to Rice and is always one first to say hello. Sarah leaves good mornings on stream the night before so when her friends log on they all now that she was thinking of them.

Sean smiles as he thinks of the small girl with dark hair who has become a great friend since coming to university. Sean minimizes Saran's notice to find a red alert flashing in his task bar. He clicks on the little red exclamation point to see his friend Rick Water's avatar come up in a separate window. Rick's status says "I have the Bio Research Notes on my blog" next to it is the link to his blog and when Sean clicks on the link, Rick is notified that one of his friends utilized his notes.

Sean, Sarah, and Rick are going to be the core group of users who have been utilizing social networks for most of their life. As they expanded their social circles at home, they also advanced their social circles world-wide. These kids will organize the world in such a way that no longer will advertisers be able to create information that will inevitably be read, they risk losing touch with the true user of information online and what they are enjoying unless they are a part of the lifestyle these users interact with. The local economy will be trimmed down to the truest of recommended and trusted shops and retailers. The streaming internet will be partial, private, and most of all, wanted by anyone who wants to be seen online. When Sean, Sarah, and Rick let you into their stream you will be able to take advantage of their expertise, their insight, their knowledge.

So Rick's research pad may be a great tool for him now, what, the iPad changed along with the Kindle. The manufacturer of the research pad rick uses included the best computing, reading, and traditional work tools all in one too. Rick can download and read any book in the world, he can write a book and publish it quickly, he can surf the web, internet, email, but all he really uses it for is school and stream gathering. Following the links his stream shows him or the part of the stream is likes to follow on that day.

rick gets streams from 192 of the best online friends you can find. He selected these streams because they are all relevant to him. to his likes and dislikes, his favorite sports team, race car driver, Rice University professors, classmates, and even from Trudy at his job. Trudy still likes cartoons and even though Sean won't admit it, he does to. So he can see what Trusy has been up to whenever he likes because his stream subscription have everything he needs to get the news he uses and nothing else.

Forget about keywords people, think

Say Hello to Internet Streams (Pt 1)

Say Hello to Internet Streams (Pt 1)

Where are you going and where have you been?

Even before making their first dollar online, bright online content developers need to understand what it takes to see their dreams through to reality. People like me know more than they can do and do as much as they can. I have been known to mix things up.

This year there is change in my approach, call it a maturing of the procedure. You and I are expecting to see some good things from Powerfitz Publishing and the content that will be produced in 2010. As a writer I am becoming more aware how valuable each word can be, that is why I am building my very own base of content to market rather than selling it away for practically nothing. "Learn how I made the switch."

Every write needs to look at where they stand against someone like me, I'm poised to make a name for myself and the only things I had when I started was a computer and the internet. If you can write you can make money online. Work for someone else and it's a job. Work for yourself and you have the possibility of making it very big indeed.

Here's a little secret that's not really a secret...

"Content Marketing is what everyone wants right now, and search engines are rewarding streams of original content with the best search results." They might call it a band wagon but I call it band width and with the recent introductions of both Amazon Kindle and now the iPad from Steve Jobs and Apple, The writing for money online trend is moving in a direction that benefits writers and authors and readers alike. The demand for original content to fill the huge amounts of Kindle and Ipad disk space is creating new business models from which to earn an income.

If you are not sure which direction to take your content management, consider keeping it all for yourself and making money from it? The smartest authors are building a private library of "on demand" content that people can come and grab whenever they like. Fans and followers from Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn allow authors and readers to connect.

A business model of content management based on the theory that as the internet evolves into "streams", a business must have "content" first. Take in account that to build a stream with followers takes on average a year or more before any revenue can even begin to be created.

"How far behind are you willing to get?"

Pamona 2010 (14 days and counting)

Pamona 2010 Kicks off the Full Throttle NHRA Drag Race Season in 14 days

You know it. The NHRA is back on again in fourteen days and that means that for Team Nitrousfitz and B&D Racing, the season is just a few short weeks away. Right now, the off season was filled with things to do. "It looks like the season will have it's own obstacles too, new and old. The Chevelle project is moving, but appears not to be finished by the time the 2010 drag racing begins for the three drivers and their team at Team Nitrousfitz and B&D Racing. Both dragster came off the end of last year with solid runs. SP4550 is ready right out of the box to win the first race a Houston Raceway Park. The News is big this year and the opportunity is great.

If you didn't know it, the NHRA is introducing Top Sportsman and Top Dragster to the lineup of races at National NHRA drag races. This makes it possible for two out of the three drivers of Team Nitrousfitz to have a showing at a national event this year. The registration procedures are making it hard for us to get in the race, but if this pattern continues, we will surely find our way into all the division 4 national events that feature either the Top Sportsman or Top Dragster classes. "It's what the team was built up to do, to get into the races involves having good results at other divisional events and attendance at more circuit races throughout the year.

We will be watching when we can, and racing when we can, all year. Come and say hello! Give us a shout out on your own blog, or just come back and read what else is going on down here in Texas. We're "Racing for Money" in the NHRA with three different class vehicles, Super Pro 4550, Top Sportsman 46 (2009), and Top Dragster 4200, Team Nitrousfitz.

The Year of the Author

The Year of the Author

This year is turning out to be just like they said it would. Literary agents, publishers, and even authors have noticed that wherever they look, there is a new writer working or an experienced author writing more. Connect this trend with the explosion of social media and an American economic slump, there are more writers working from home offices than ever before.

Just ask Nathan Bransford what is different this year than past years, and he'll tell you that there are more queries being sent into publishers and agents than ever before. The reason is simple and it gives authors hope that if it continues they can make a good living creating stories and taking notes of facts about what people on the internet are looking for. Content is King and content marketing is the prince that will carry on the lineage of quality writing pays when it is produced "on demand" and has a following ready to read and rate it's quality. The signs were there all year long, National Writing Month set the ball in motion, and now the best time to prepare a great work of fiction for the internet is right now.

If you're a writer but you are a new writer I can tell you that I know you, you and me are alike. I am a writer who started writing because my reality changed and I agreed to change with it. I am not just another sheep in the crowd though, I am the black sheep. "Here's how I plan on getting myself heard through all the baaaaing."

#1 Write More (How to, Revenue Share, Website content, tagging, categorizing, novels, links, blog)
#2 Social More
Facebook
Twitter
Website
New options
#3 Bookmark More (Social Marker)
#4 Talk More (Blog Radio)
#5 Record More (NHRA, New Fiction)
#6 Organize More (Calendar, Schedules, Meetings)

These are all difficult and time consuming tasks. Each one has it's rewards and by following along a schedule of activity that is effective, you can become as good as you want to be, or purport to be, or are. The internet has not offered more opportunity to the lowly writer than right now. I am leading the way with my marketing as I get the content rolling out that will make the most residual income over the long haul.

Royalties will allow me to pursue the rest of my dreams, and writing about what I dream about is a great place to start earning money from the things I love to do.
