Alexa had dropped the “r” in “party,” making the word sound flat, like pah-tee.
The technologists are part of a team at Amazon working on a challenging area of data science known as voice disentanglement.
Tackling voice disentanglement involves far more than grasping vocabulary and syntax.
Such work may eventually converge with an explosion of “generative A.I.,” a technology that enables chatbots to generate their own responses, researchers said.
At the same time, voice assistants like Alexa and Apple’s Siri will become more conversational, potentially rekindling consumer interest in a tech segment that had seemingly stalled, analysts said.
