What is Google’s bot strategy after Allo launch?

--

I tried to like Google Allo; I really did. However, not enough people I know were on it, while everyone was already on Whatsapp. The only thing I LOVED was Google Assistant (and Adarsh Balak stickers). That said, I could get similar functionality with Google Now as well. The only advantage was that the results were provided within the context of a conversation. That got me thinking.

Google should tap into their search strategy of making Google search available everywhere.

What if Google made Assistant available on all bot platforms? Imagine pinging Google Assistant from within Facebook messenger, from within Skype, from within Slack. THAT would be revolutionary.
