This recently resulted in the invention of proactive personal assistants which collect all available data to predict future needs of the user and assist in the resulting situations. We propose that this development will continue and result in amicus, a pure virtual assistant which handles all possible challenges a future human might be confronted with in the real or virtual world. The system will provide pure intuitive interaction including natural feedback and recognition of any human communication form.virtual workpersonal assistantproactive assistantText/Workshop Paper
