Google has lots of research teams working on things like artificial intelligence, and a number of the engineers are tasked with looking at “supercharging” accessible tech, making it more mainstream. Google is developing an app that learns how to better recognise speech patterns of those who might struggle like people with muscular dystrophy – and helps them communicate more easily. It does this by transcribing speech to text in real time, repeating someone’s voice in a synthesised voice and speaking into voice assistants. Will this bring technology inclusivity across the globe ?
