noHold’s A.I. Advancements in 2015

January 27, 2016, MILPITAS, CA –In 2015, many developments were made in the Artificial Intelligence market, specifically surrounding Virtual Assistants. “The Consumer Technology Association predicts that Virtual Assistants will become more heavily used, especially since major tech companies have announced that the technology programs have gotten more advanced. In terms of the user experience, there will be fewer taps, clicks and swipes as virtual assistants begin to make more tailored recommendations rather than merely supplying a list of links from a search engine” (powermore.dell.com). As the market remains on the rise, expecting to reach $3.07 billion by 2020 (globenewswire.net), noHold is continuously making moves to improve self-service technology and enhance the customer experience.   

As the acknowledged leader in web based self-service solutions, noHold is excited to sum up some of the major successes of 2015 within the company.

“I will remember 2015 as the year where most of my meetings didn’t have to start with an explanation of what a Virtual Assistant (VA) is. VA’s are becoming part of our culture and we will continue to make sure they play a role that supports peace and love. Happy New Year!” – Diego Ventura, CEO and founder of noHold.
