But as the technology continues to improve, and we get more comfortable talking to our gadgets, such services are increasingly becoming common practice.
Nearly three quarters (72%) of consumers who use digital assistants are already satisfied with their capabilities, while more than a third (38%) of those consumers report being very satisfied.
