    This is a small python script that uses Google Text To Speech API to identify what you say, and if it is one of three questions ("how are you", "what time is it", "where is") it gives canned responses. This is along the lines of the beginnings of very simple expert system, and seems like a fairly cool project to give someone when they are learning to program. This isn't exactly what I expected from a personal assistant called Jarvis, however.

    Jasper is another cool project that has a bit better of a foundation. You can make little Python modules for pretty much anything.
