Smart AI assistants are sophisticated software tools powered by artificial intelligence designed to assist users in completing tasks, answering questions, and organizing information. Far beyond simple chatbots that follow pre-programmed scripts, these assistants use advanced algorithms, machine learning, and natural language processing (NLP) to understand human language, learn from interactions, and provide intelligent, context-aware support. https://webdesignernews.com/boosting-productivity-eng
If you’ve been living on another planet for the past few years, you might not know about the impact caused by the rise of artificial intelligence. If you look at the news, you might even think AI is the name of a serial killer.

When a viral Reddit post revealed that ChatGPT cured a five-year medical mystery in seconds, even LinkedIn’s Reid Hoffman took notice.

Everyone who’s ever talked to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and other big-name chatbots recognizes how anodyne they can be. Because these conversational AIs’ creators stuff them with as much human-generated training content as possible, they don’t end up sounding like anyone in particular. Instead—to borrow the title of a 1986 book by philosopher Thomas Nagel—they offer the view from nowhere.
