About the brand ❤️
Alice is a Russian intelligent virtual assistant and conversational AI developed by Yandex, designed to understand and respond to natural language queries with a conversational personality. Launched in 2017, Alice brings together speech recognition, context awareness, and Yandex’s suite of services, helping users find information, get weather and traffic updates, play music, control smart devices, and perform tasks through voice or text interaction. Unlike basic command-based assistants, Alice uses deep neural networks and advanced dialogue models to maintain context and engage in more natural exchanges. It’s integrated across Yandex’s mobile apps, smart speakers (like Yandex Station), web interfaces, and devices, becoming one of the most widely used Russian-language voice assistants. Recent upgrades have incorporated large-language-model engines to improve reasoning, creativity, and utility, expanding Alice’s capabilities for both consumer use and smart home integration.
