The voice assistance service is one of the incredible features of Google. As long as it is connected with the internet, the voice assistant is there to help its users.

According to USA Today, the advertisement gave emphasis on how technology can help people remember their loved ones.

Advanced technology has helped memorialized people on several social media platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

The memories saved can be kept in the "Cloud," a kind of software accessible on the internet. People may also delete any of its information if they no longer wanted it.
