We officially kicked off the first reads of the Women in Voice bookclub for 2023. Participants can choose to read one of two articles, Age of Invisible Machines, or When Women Lead. Or you can be an over-achiever and read all four! Please check out WiV if you’re wanting to connect with a supportive group of people celebrating all things #voicefirst, #conversationdesign #AI, #NLP, and #womenintech. https://womeninvoice.org

Conversation is the ultimate user interface

Was planen BMW und Stellantis mit Amazon?

BMW und Stellantis wollen künftig als bisher einzige Autobauer mit Amazon kooperieren. Der US-Techkonzern versucht derzeit, sich mit seiner künstlichen Intelligenz und #Software rund um den Sprachassistenten Alexa als dritter IT-Konzern nach Google und Apple in der Autowelt zu etablieren.
Amazon will dafür eine Softwareplattform für Autos aufbauen, ähnlich Googles Android Auto oder Apples CarPlay.

When it comes to accessibility what is the number one thing you want from big tech in 2023?

For me it’s an easy one - significantly smarter, more accurate, and productive to use voice dictation, on both phones and laptops, on Apple, Google and Microsoft tech. Voice dictation capabilities could and should be better, less frustrating, and more productive to use

Anybody know a machine that requires language understanding? Read on to learn how machines are taught OUR language “In PAT, a sentence needs its constituents to align with the predicators. Predicates determine their arguments” — @jbthinking@twitter.com https://link.medium.com/DPctRvRiQvb #voicefirst

“A test for whether the word (sign) is an index or symbol is quite simple. If the word (sign) changes its meaning based on context, or it cannot be identified without context, it is an index” — @jbthinking@twitter.com https://link.medium.com/8ThkpCXuPvb #voicefirst #NLU #machinelearning

“‘the underlying ASR science needs to be updated to incorporate meaning from NLU’” — @jbthinking@twitter.com https://link.medium.com/PMNk8BwINvb #voicefirst

“The resolution of meaning is left with context, not some kind of educated guess.” — @jbthinking@twitter.com https://link.medium.com/ZpoMJWzGNvb #voicefirst

“The recognition of these multi-sensory and motor control elements is the purpose of Patom Theory. It’s theoretical neuroscience.” — @jbthinking@twitter.com https://link.medium.com/UJBfnvRqKvb #voicefirst

“Patom Theory uses a different paradigm, using the entire brain efficiently. Storing sensory information where is arrives, and linking bidirectionally between areas to build up a multisensory understanding of the world.” — @jbthinking@twitter.com https://link.medium.com/UJBfnvRqKvb #voicefirst

“Taking advantage of the extensive expertise of languages provided by RRG is common sense, and promises to interact with future IT systems based on centralized meaning.” — @jbthinking@twitter.com https://link.medium.com/PPBcMD6rFvb #voicefirst

This is what understanding language means “When you move to the kitchen, you BECOME be-in’ the kitchen. Why be-in’ and not be-at’, be-on’ or be-inside’? Rooms in houses are treated as some kind of 3D object, so you are in it.” — @jbthinking@twitter.com https://link.medium.com/lsQlAp3Ehvb #voicefirst

“In those tests, we demonstrated how the conversational tasks are better handled without the popular deep learning paradigm, but let’s see the abstract I wrote in 2017.” — @jbthinking@twitter.com https://link.medium.com/tGLpm73Govb #voicefirst

“PAT achieved 100%, and found errors in machine learning training data, on Facebook’s intelligent dialog tests 5 years ago. ” — @jbthinking@twitter.com https://link.medium.com/tGLpm73Govb #voicefirst

“Future NLU systems will rely on meaning-based systems for that reason — emulating human beings for languages is too complex otherwise.” — @jbthinking@twitter.com https://link.medium.com/tGLpm73Govb #voicefirst
