If you’ve ever asked Apple’s Siri or Amazon’s Alexa something, you may have noticed you speak MORE LOUDLY, slowly or make your words “clear-er.” 鶹app researchers say most of us speak differently when talking to our devices. Our social behavior may even be changing when talking with voice artificial intelligence.
In the latest episode of the 鶹app podcast , called “Hey Siri, Why Do I Speak Differently to You?” host Amy Quinton and co-host Marianne Russ Sharp talk to two 鶹app linguists to find out how voice AI is changing the way we operate.
In this episode:
