Build your own J.A.R.V.I.S in Python [Full Code + Video]

In this article, we will learn how to create a Feature Rich Virtual Assistant in Python. We will be adding following features to this project :

1. Time Reporting

2. Taking Screenshot

3. Performing Google Search

4. Opening a Specific Website

5. Searching on Wikipedia

6. Listen to Jokes

7. Desktop Notifications for COVID-19 Statistics.

Here is the code for the complete project :

        print('recognition is on....')
        recognizer.pause_threshold = 0.7
        voice = recognizer.listen(source)
        try:
