[Air-L] Research on voice assistants and/or voice interaction tech?

Mon Jul 30 06:06:29 PDT 2018

Hi Stephanie,

My book, Giving Voice (MIT Press, 2017), focuses on the social and cultural
implications of voice-enabled technology. It's an ethnography of
non-speaking individuals with communication disabilities, and their uses of
speech-generating technologies (in the vein of Stephen Hawking, but now in
the form of apps and tablet computers). It also goes into the history of
synthetic speech, and the importance of recognizing that humans not only
interact with these voices (i.e., digital assistants), but speak through
them as well.

Here's also a shorter related piece in Lady Science/The New Inquiry:

Best,
Meryl
