The Facebook CEO revealed in a Facebook post on Sunday that he is planning to build his own Artificial Intelligence assistant similar to the butler Jarvis from the film Iron Man that can help him around the house and at the office.

“You can think of it kind of like Jarvis in Iron Man,” he writes referring to the robotic butler in Marvel movies.

Zuckerberg said he would start to build the AI using existing technology and teach it to understand his voice to control everything in the house, such as lighting, temperature and music.

“This should be a fun intellectual challenge to code this for myself,” Mr Zuckerberg said.

“I’ll teach it to let friends in by looking at their faces when they ring the doorbell,” he writes. “I’ll teach it to let me know if anything is going on in Max’s room that I need to check on when I’m not with her. On the work side, it’ll help me visualize data in VR to help me build better services and lead my organizations more effectively.” he said.
