Cross-referencing
Etc. Difficult for users to discover and learn
the features that could best help them

Original Idea: Lumiere
Bayesian model (AI technique) Agent tracks user’s goals Offer advice when user appears stuck Taper off advice as user stops showing
interest in new features Prevent frustrating the user
Accepts that every user may not want to become a complete power user of Word

It worked but…
Lumiere’s software took up a large percentage of the Office memory and storage space requirements
Caused Office to run a bit slowly

Marketing’s Lobotomy
Lumiere’s intelligence was stripped They kept the task detection software
Removed the code for tracking the learner’s progress and avoiding annoyance
Result: Unhappy customers
Clippy removed from Office 2007

Impact on Intelligent Agents
Negative opinion of intelligent helper agents like Clippy Furthered by automated hotlines with
poor speech recognition Lumiere as it was would run fine on
computers today It won’t be implemented into future
Office versions
Consumer response would be negative

Perhaps the Tide is Turning
Clippy was over 4+ years ago New smart agents are around Apple iPhone’s Siri
Very popular
Not animated but is treated as a person Siri-type clones likely to become more
plentiful in the near future
