Google Duplex is a new software that allows a user to make a phone call by simply speaking to Google Assistant. The assistant makes use of natural language processing technology to understand the conversation and will respond as if the user is talking to a human.

Google Duplex is currently being tested with a limited number of users and is still in development. However, it has the potential to change the way we use phones.

Google Duplex is a two-step process. First, the user has to set up a Google Duplex account. This account will store information about the phone call, including the location and calendar information.

Second, the user has to initiate the call by talking to Google Assistant. Based on the stored information, the voice assistant can identify the person on the other end of the call and will start the call using that person's voice.

For that reason, you must ensure that you train your voice assistant with the same commands every time you use it.
