Re: [Air-L] Research on voice assistants and/or voice interaction
Hello Stephanie, I’ve been writing about issues of voice, accents, nationality, and gender in the labor of digital assistants in a forthcoming chapter “Sound Bites, Sentiments, and Accents: Digitizing Communicative Labor in the Era of Global Outsourcing,” in A Field Guide to DigitalSTS, edited by David Ribes and Janet Vertesi, Princeton University Press; and “Virtual Receptionist with a Human Touch: Opposing Pressures of Digital Automation and Outsourcing in Interactive Services,” in Invisible Labor, UC Press, 2016. Let me know if you’d like to see them. Winnie Poster _______________________________________ Dr. Winifred R.

Hi all,
I know there's a thread going about AI research, but I'm looking for anything that's out there on voice tech - it can be about assistants, voice recognition in general, impacts of voice enabled technology, etc. Trying to get a sense of what people are looking at (if anything).

Hi Stephanie: My colleague Ben Cowan and his team are working on a project on voice synthesis and assistants: https://cogsis.wordpress.com/team-2/ Kalpana On 30 July 2018 at 14:41, Winifred Poster <wrposter@gmail.com> wrote:
