Nokia's digital assistance 'Viki' to fight Google Now and Siri

Mobile giant Nokia may soon launch its own artificial intelligence called 'Viki' in order to compete with other smartphone giants like Apple, Samsung and LG. Presently the Artificial Intelligence space is being ruled by Siri, Google Assistant, Alexa and Cortana.

‘Viki' is spotted in a trademark filing made by Nokia. The trademark filing describes ‘Viki' as a software used for "the creation and monitoring of mobile and web assistants working with digital knowledge and combining all data sources into a single chat and voice-based interface."

Nokia was left behind in the ever-growing competitive smartphone race, until and unless it revived its brand with the launch of Nokia 6 Android phone in China.
