Google Assistant is an artificial intelligence-powered virtual assistant developed by Google that is primarily available on mobile and smart home devices. Google Assistant offers voice commands, voice searching, and voice-activated device control, letting you complete a number of tasks after you’ve said the “OK Google” or “Hey Google” wake words. Even though the Assitant is partially considered in the “all-knowing” category, there are a few things that the user is supposed to teach the Virtual Assistant like matching/recognizing their voice. In situations when Google Assistant can not recognize your voice, the tasks will not be fulfilled. Google Assistant is trained to recognize up to 6 different voices so that the virtual assistant can quickly notice who is trying to reach out. Once the Assistant masters your voice, you will be able to get personalized results. In the step-by-step guide below, you will be able to teach Google Assistant to recognize your voice.
