Summary | Artificial intelligence is getting closer to our homes. Many French companies want to make our lives at home easier, and artificial intelligence is the answer. For instance, HomeServe worked with natural language processing in order to create a virtual assistant that can solve breakdowns. Thanks to artificial intelligence, users can send a message to a chatbot (called Tom) and explain the problem/breakdown. Then, Tom identifies the breakdown and tries to find a way to solve it. This new assistant can also tell you how much the fixing will cost and schedule an appointment with a professional.

Summary | Bots might be the future of big companies such as Facebook. In France, the train company SNCF and the insurance company Axa Shift were the first ones to introduce bots. Chatbots were born in 1950, but they only became popular with the introduction of Siri in 2011 (the iPhone's assistant). With bots, people will be able to book a cab or check their bank information on their phone. Bots wouldn't replace apps; they would make the use of apps easier.
