However it has been observed that Google Assistant has been more accurate in terms of accuracy and number of questions answered in comparison to Cortana. Apple which has couple of days ago confirmed that it has moved away from Bing to Google as its default web search service, its digital assistant Siri still stands in last place in terms to accuracy behind Google Assistant, Cortana and Alexa.
