Peter, Search out Asterisk community in Australia, I’m overseas now….but there were more than a few doing cutting edge stuff a few years ago.

The Amazon Echo has been a surprise hit in the US, with Google Home close behind, Apple firmly rumoured to have something in skunkworks development. Facebooks slightly different spin is text processing and AI. Yet no-one is doing anything interesting in Australia with Speech UI/UX (Apart from those IVR phone systems, which is my background I begrudgingly admit) Speech in contexts such as Home, Car and other 'assistant' paradigms looks pretty likely to be a boom industry over the next decade. What is usually missing is proper, experienced UX design. Many implementations in Speech today are the HTML equivalent of flashing pink text - Seemed like a good idea to some developer at the time. Did anyone see 'Honey' on The Block TV show? - "Honey, kids, mode sunset" - Or something like that. Good grief. Flashing pink text. Proper design would see the design support, or better yet encourage: "Honey, set the kids room for sunset". Anyone out there in Silicon Beach land want to jump on this wave with me and explore opportunities in compelling Speech interfaces? -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Silicon Beach Australia mailing list.
