Microsoft brings HoloLens, Cortana support to SkypeMarch 31, 2016 - 11:37 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Microsoft is developing a version of Skype for HoloLens that lets you chat and collaborate with friends using the augmented reality headset, Engadget reports. Its exact functionality isn't clear yet, but the allure is clear: you can hold a hands-free video chat while you're walking around the room, Engadget says. The team is bringing artificial intelligence to Skype in a big way. You'll have access to the Cortana personal assistant on Android, iOS and Windows, to begin with. It's much like other conversational helpers: you can ask her to send directions, order food, or even connect to other bots. Support for chat bots is being woven into Skype itself, on that note, so companies can serve you through AI messaging when it's convenient. Also, there's a bot developer kit to help programmers get started, Engadget said. Top stories Yerevan will host the 2024 edition of the World Congress On Information Technology (WCIT).
