Abstract
In this paper, we aim to draw attention towards wake words. Wake words are an integral part of every request addressed to Intelligent Personal Assistants (IPAs). Currently, a request made to an IPA is led by wake words, making a conversation with an IPA more tiresome than a conversation with a human being. The main question we pose in this paper is, whether we can eliminate the use of wake words at least in specific contexts. Based on our experience with IPAs we propose three less burdensome alternatives that avoid the need for speaking wake words in some cases. Based on these approaches we discuss how to design seamless conversations with IPAs.
