Move over, Siri and Alexa: Here's a wildly ambitious new AI assistant

So let's dive into some specifics, shall we? In a nutshell, Augment adds numerous augments (get it?!) onto your existing devices. Those lowercase augments are best described as layers of intelligence that observe what you're doing and then step in as needed to make sure you always have the info you need exactly when you need it. If that concept rings a bell, congratulations: You've been paying attention. Philosophically, at least, Augment is strikingly similar to Heyday, a context-surfacing service I covered for Fast Company earlier this year.
