How Artificial Speech Intelligence Can Transform Lives in Virtual Reality
In the digital space, efficiency and convenience are top priorities. Providing personal, easy experiences is a leading goal of new technology. As smart devices and artificial intelligence (AI) continue to advance, our standards for computer-to-human interaction level up as well.
Since the first publicly accessible conversational AI software was made available in 2011 (thanks to Apple’s Siri), there’s been a major push for the innovation of speech intelligence. Smart speakers like the Amazon Echo and Sonos One are common household appliances, extending from a market that continues to grow.
These technologies use voice search as a way to satisfy user requests: shopping online, finding answers to questions and locating relevant services required for modern living. By combining search engines with voice technology, we’re entering a world where personalized virtual experiences are not only valued but practically expected.
From Speech Recognition to Voice AI
Voice technology has been in development since the 1970s in universities and tech companies. The first machine-programmed virtual assistant emerged in the 1990s, and once it did, the novel invention was here to stay. We see continued development today with conversational AI tech in our homes, workplaces and modes of transportation.
With the improvement of technological devices like computers, smartphones and now voice assistants such as Amazon Echo and Google Voice Search, AI is part of our everyday lives. Like other digital virtual assistants such as chat boxes, voice AI relies on multiple programs using data recorded over time to interpret and deliver accurate information to humans.
Search engines like Google are the main information source for voice technology apps. As the tech industry grows, new requirements and higher expectations for conversational AI appear both in verbal communication with machines and in virtual reality experiences.
Intuitive, Secure Interactions Between Human and Computer
People already know how to operate computers and learn the ever-evolving software systems in place. Now it’s the computers’ turn to learn how to better interact with humans in order to provide game-changing possibilities.
To meet increased demands for conversational AI, software developers are focused on coming up with one-of-a-kind interfaces. MeetKai, one of the tech companies devoted to providing an accessible speech search assistant, is refining its system in a whole new way. To achieve more dynamic lifestyle experiences with AI, the company is redefining what personalized virtual reality could be.
The founders of MeetKai know that secure and interactive processes must become the norm for voice AI technologies to keep up with consumer demands. As a solution to the common frustration of repeating commands into a smart speaker only to be met with “Error, please try again,” these developers aim to give people what they want and need. By making the machine learning of Kai’s system more sophisticated, users of the app can enjoy the human-machine dialogue that maintains original question and context, in a way that’s light years ahead of the hit-or-miss of existing voice AI.
In any scenario, to deliver increasingly accurate results, AI must learn the preferences and behaviors of the individual user. The basis is an algorithm that can integrate negation options and add to a personalized experience. A search query is not just about what someone wants — it also greatly matters which types of results a person doesn’t want. This is new territory.
Conversational AI in Virtual Reality for Lifestyle Exploration
As society begins to explore the Metaverse, a whole new level of virtual interaction opens up. People who use virtual reality (VR) now have the ability to see, experience and learn things that they never could before.
The next stage of augmenting VR experience is advancing the ability for conversational interaction in these virtual worlds. VR users know how to interact in virtual reality by moving their bodies and navigating buttons on controllers. But what if they were able to converse their way through these experiences as in the real world?
Bringing all the advantages of artificial speech intelligence into immersive virtual experiences allows users to explore lifestyle decisions otherwise outside of their capacity. James Kaplan, the CEO and founder of MeetKai, hopes to lead the industry in creating affordable and accessible Metaverse interactions in VR.
Using Personalized Virtual Applications to Solve Problems
Whether someone uses voice-only AI, such as a speech search mobile app, or delves further into the technology with VR, these new opportunities present amazing potential for improving people’s daily lives.
Conversational search becomes more than finding answers to search queries; it’s now a way for people to discover new possibilities and make new connections. AI-powered virtual reality becomes more than entertainment. It can be a tool that people use to expand their skill sets and engage in society. . . in a new dimension.
Moving forward, upgrades to these virtual applications will prove technology’s ability to empower and enrich lives all around the world. As communication broadens between humans and machines, new solutions come to light. Previously unreachable experiences now give tech users the chance to develop personally, professionally and collectively.
