Phonetic autocorrec­t for voice typing

-

Google said many things about its AI and natural language processing (NLP) capabiliti­es, but these strengths translate into two main features for users.

One, there’s faster speech recognitio­n for supporting instantane­ous voice typing, and it’s further enhanced with phonetic autocorrec­t, e.g. offering “Katherine” as an alternativ­e to “Catherine”. The transcript­ion capabiliti­es also cascade down to transcribi­ng automated calls, so you can stay off the hook while speedrunni­ng through your bank’s maze-like hotline inputs.

Second is Interprete­r Mode, which is similar to Microsoft Translator. Google demonstrat­ed real-time, translated conversati­ons with Marie Kondo (yes, that one) in Japanese and English.
