Can Samsung Kill Siri?

Today, 40% of smartphone owners already use digital assistants, according to a recent survey conducted by Parks Associates. Not surprising, millennials are most likely to partake (46%), but -- as the technology continues to improve and we get more comfortable talking to our gadgets -- such services are increasingly becoming common practice.

What's more, 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.
