My Line brings the power of Google Assistant to anyone with access to a standard phone line. This inclusive technology makes search in artificial intelligence available to people without a smartphone or a computer.
After placing a call to a regular local telephone number, the caller can ask to Google Assistant the question. In just a second or two, we process the question in a custom software and connect with Google Systems in the cloud. My line receives the response and speaks it back to the caller by phone.
