Cortana （微软小娜）是微软发布的全球第一款个人智能助理。它“能够了解用户的喜好和习惯”，“帮助用户进行日程安排、问题回答等”。Cortana 可以说是微软在机器学习和人工智能领域方面的尝试。微软想实现的事情是，手机用户与小娜的智能交互，不是简单地基于存储式的问答，而是对话。它会记录用户的行为和使用习惯，利用云计算、搜索引擎和“非结构化数据”分析，读取和“学习”包括手机中的文本文件、电子邮件、图片、视频等数据，来理解用户 的语义和语境，从而实现人机交互。一个很简单的例子就是，假如手机中记录的日程显示将要参加会议，那么不需任何操作，Cortana 到时就会自动将手机调至会议状态。这也是微软的 研究，从个人计算机（personal computer）走向个人计算（personal computing）的开始。微软Windows系统负责人Joe Belfiore（乔北峰）已确认Cortana实现跨平台。可通过App Store、Google Play商店进行下载。
