Computer Science and Engineering

The main goal of Artificial intelligence (AI) is the realization of natural dialogue between humans and machines. There are many IT companies have used the dialogue systems technology to establish various kinds of Virtual Personal Assistants (VPAs) based on their applications and areas for increasing interaction between human and machine, such as Microsoft’s Cortana, Apple’s Siri, Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant. As like Microsoft cortana we have created our own virtual personal assistant only for windows using python which is able to access on any windows explorer such as windows 7,8,10. We use python as a programming language because it have a major libraries which is use to execute commands. By using python installer packages our personal virtual assistant recognize the user voice and process on it. Voice assistants are the great innovation in the field of AI that can change the way of living of the people in a different manner. The voice assistant was first introduced on smartphones and after the popularity it got. It was widely accepted by all. Initially, the voice assistant was mostly being used in smartphones and laptops but now it is also coming as home automation and smart speakers. Many devices are becoming smarter in their own way to interact with human in an easy language. The Desktop based voice assistant are the programs that can recognize human voices and can respond via integrated voice system. This paper will define the working of a voice assistants, their main problems and limitations. In this paper it is described that the method of creating a voice assistant without using cloud services, which will allow the expansion of such devices in the future
