The power of voice-based interactions has grown exponentially with the addition of always-on systems, combined with advanced analytics (AI), cloud-based computing and optimized multichannel delivery of insights. The voice-first paradigm will move beyond providing answers to questions – using data and insights to proactively provide insights and guidance that will simplify life for consumers.

In a voice-first world, advertising, commerce, payments and interacting with others around us will change dramatically.
