Abstract
From voice-activated devices to speech-to-text tools, voice recognition technology has grown in the last 15 years to become an indispensable part of modern living. As we tread alongside the path of its development, we pause to ask: who gets left behind? Kathy Reid (ANU), Peter-Lucas Jones (Te Hiku Media) and Keir Winesmith (NFSA) discuss bias in voice data, weaknesses in certain demographics and leading the movement to take ownership of language technologies away from American giants.
