I am blown away by the fact that I made dinner reservations tonight with my Google Assistant.
I told Google the name of the restaurant, how many people, the date and time.
Google did the rest. I received updates every fifteen minutes informing me that they had not been able to reach the restaurant but would keep trying.
Finally, within an hour, I received an email from Google confirming my reservation.
I was impressed.
Tomorrow night will be the test.
Hopefully everything will go well.
If so, I will feel comfortable using the Google Assistant for other appointments. No more waiting on hold!
Brave new world!

I hope you don’t arrive at the restaurant only to find that you have to stand on the sidewalk and eat a “virtual” dinner.

I admit I am a bit nervous. I will know tonight if it truly worked. I use Google to call and text but this is the first time for a reservation . Fingers crossed.
How are things going? I hope to visit BC in late summer or early fall. 😊

Good luck and congratulations. Seeing that picture of the assistant though I am reminded of the movie i,robot. Let’s just hope we don’t need the services of Dr. Susan Calvin. Hee hee.

I am impressed, also unnerved… I resonate with the comment above (“Frightening…”) — but yay you, for conquering something new! It’s what we must all keep doing.
