Iron Man's ‘Jarvis’ will be built by Facebook for Mark Zuckerberg

Mark Zuckerberg wants to have an artificially intelligent assistant like Jarvis in the blockbuster sci-fi flick 'Iron Man' .He wants this to help run his home and assist him at work.

Mark, who commits to a new personal challenge every year, said in a post that this Virtual Assistant would look like Jarvis from the Hollywood film. He said he would start to build the AI with available technology and teach it to understand his voice to control everything in his home from music and lights to temperature.


"This should be a fun intellectual challenge to code this for myself. I'll teach it to let friends in by looking at their faces when they ring the doorbell," Zuckerberg posted. "I'll teach it to let me know if anything is going on in Max's (his daughter's) room that I need to check on when I'm not with her," he wrote.


The tech billionaire said a part of the motivation behind this year's challenge was the reward of building things yourself.
Zuckerberg's previous personal challenges have included learning Mandarin, reading two books a month and meeting a new person everyday. "Every year, I take on a personal challenge to learn new things and grow outside my work at Facebook. The theme for his challenge this year is invention," he posted.
