Cortana's voice search received 6.000 billion queries in 1 year

Cortana queries

We are still waiting for Cortana to offer a increased support for more languages so it can be opened to other regions and to the millions of users who use Windows 10 around the world. A voice assistant capable since this edition of Windows was launched and of which we know some figures to know its acceptance by the public that you can use it from your computer.

At the SMX event, Microsoft's Lynne Kjolso announced that Cortana has received more than 6.000 million queries since its launch of Windows 10. In general terms, this means a 60% increase year over year for the queries that are made from this voice assistant included in Windows 10.

Kjolso also offered some details about the increase in popularity Cortana and voice search, a rather sudden change is about to occur with the voice that will become something that everyone will relate to for years to come.

The possibilities of technology combined with messaging to perform certain daily tasks with the help of the digital assistant and the bot were also discussed. An idea that comes preconceived from Google I / O 2016 where the guys from Mountain View demonstrated great capacity for the future in these two aspects, both personal assistance and bots to receive basic aid.

Going back to Cortana, and as I said at the beginning, it is very important that you fix support for different languages, since there are many who are restricted from being able to use it from their computer due to this same lack. Logically, when more users can use Cortana in their language, Microsoft will be able to receive more data and offer better experiences than what this assistant offers right now. At least it's already available from Band 2.

It would also be recommended that improve voice recognition, since many times it fails.
