“We make the service itself intuitive so that every user, regardless of age and health status, could understand it. The assistant will simply control the computer with your voice for you. The people around them – parents, relatives, acquaintances, friends and even doctors – will be able to convey information about it to elderly people or users with disabilities, ”the developers of the assistant emphasized.
