Cortana News (Coming from the inside) (OP being updated)

[azcruz]

Yea, my car has a few clocks and I agree but, again, it was not my car...

But, I do think Cortana should be able to do basic things like that..

Yes it makes sense and nice to have.

Cortana will become smarter only when it interacts with you almost in a natural pattern other than giving pre defined responses. Otherwise how can we call it as a great innovative personal assistant. She doesn't even call you by name (basic thing).

We have to wait for a good time to get such an experience from smartphones

She does call you by name...just ask her your name and she will reply you

 

[renjith p george]

My main point was the smartness of the assistant. Calling your name ain't a great thing

 

[renjith p george]

Also she doesn't take any of the voice commands. Other than open facebook, twitter etc commands.

it would be nice if she not look for net connection for doing things like Play Music etc things

Anyone else notice Cortana's "personality" is broken today? No Jen Taylor voice for anything I've tried.

There's a separate thread about it here, it seems to be a server side thing.

There are a lot of forum users from India who have been using Cortana. They could give you a good idea of how well it is working for them right now, and keep in mind that there are frequent server side improvements coming on line.

Guys, I have stated this a lot. Until they release dates and timeline information to the press, I really can't say anything. I know what's coming soon and what I am allowed to announce, but all in all, I can't give you % of what is done in a market and what timeframe regions are at. I can say what I say and if I have more information, I will be sure to share!

 

[Anudeep Reddy]

Did anyone notice that Cortana sounded like robotic today morning? But now she sounds more human than she did yesterday......another update on the server side Talderon?

 

[tadevinney]

Wow. Weather icon on Cortana live tile started working today. Well that is cute.. Hope I get to see something other than a bright sun all the time here in Arizona.

For the first time I was asked if a map location was where I work, sadly it is incorrect due to my ever changing work locations but it was nice to see non the less

Figured out tonight, to get Cortana to understand me better I have to speak in an American accent.. Works a treat but the wife says I'm a f*****g ***** !! Woman will never understand the desperate need to get technology to work.. No matter what !

Anyway, the answer was Germany and I replaced 'game' with 'match'
