Cortana Suggestion

[plot_almighty]

I don't have time to find the user feedback for this, so hopefully someone will submit this.

If MS is aiming for a true assistant, I suggest adding features like "Cortana, I'm depressed", or "Cortana, I'm having an anxiety attack", and possibly adding a Life Alert style command to "Hey Cortana" that auto patches you into the related emergency services in your area.

If MS would add these and tout them in Cortanas features, along with the budget thing, it would be a huge edge over Siri and Google Now.

Thoughts?

Don't think that's always a smart idea. Could cause a lot of accidental mayhem.

Though "hey cortana, I can't find my foot" could potentially be something.

Interesting idea!
Cortana knows you location. You might be able to send vitals if you have an MS band. Provide age, sex, pre-existing conditions, emergency contacts. Hands free is awesome.

I think Cortana would have be made more reliable and yup, all those mistakes people make ...

Maybe one day?
