Ant Group, the fintech affiliate of Alibaba Group Holding, made its foray into Jarvis-like territory when it launched on Thursday the Zhixiaobao app – a so-called life assistant that can help users order meals, hail taxis, book tickets, and discover local dining and entertainment options, while accessing third-party services in the firm’s Alipay payment platform more easily. Alibaba owns the South China Morning Post.

Waow, that’s amazing! So cool, so exciting! We’ve never seen anyone try anything like this ever before!

  Yeah, it's so much novel. And Jarvis - of course - is the only scifi to compare things to.
