What is Virtual Assistant?

A Virtual Assistant (VA) is a software program or application designed to provide support and perform tasks for users. It utilizes artificial intelligence and natural language processing to understand and respond to user queries, manage schedules, set reminders, and facilitate various tasks. VAs often employ tools such as speech recognition, machine learning algorithms, and chatbot technologies to enhance their capabilities. These digital assistants can operate across multiple platforms and devices, offering users a seamless and efficient way to access information and perform routine functions. Common examples include Apple's Siri, Amazon's Alexa, and Google Assistant.
