Siri, Cortana, and Google's brand-new Assistant are considered the best in the business for digital assistants. For the comparison below, we used an iPhone SE running the iOS 10.2 beta, and each article in the coming days will feature a different topic. After this 'series' of articles end, we will make a ranking of the best & worst assistants. Without further ado, please enjoy this comparison of weather conditions using Siri, Google Assistant in the Allo app, and Cortana in her respective app. SiriSiri failed on this one. She only provided web links to websites like Expedia for flight bookings. For some odd reason, she also provided a link to a flight tracker even though the question was to see what flights can be booked. Google AssistantGoogle Assistant provided the most comprehensive answer of the three, providing a list of nonstop flights and connecting flights from Los Angeles to Minneapolis. She also gave pricing and you could refine the search by a specific airline. CortanaCortana, like Siri, performed a Bing search, but unlike Siri, luckily didn't provide any odd results that did not match the search query. ConclusionWinner: Google Assistant Google's Assistant was the only of the three intelligent assistants to actually provide a list of flights for this trip. Cortana takes second place, but she still has yet to secure a win. Overall, Google Assistant has edged out Siri with two wins, followed by Siri's one win.
