The gripping inside story of the race to build conversationally capable computers<br/><br/>Chat with the author: ask your Alexa device to 'open the voice computing book'<br/><br/>The next great technological disruption is coming.<br/><br/>The titans of Silicon Valley are racing to build the last, best computer that the world will ever need. Whoever successfully creates it will revolutionise our relationship with technology - and make billions of dollars in the process. It is known as conversational AI.<br/><br/>For years, computers that can speak and think like humans have been on the verge of becoming a reality. Now, James Vlahos introduces the researchers at Google, Amazon and Apple who are leading the way to a voice tech revolution. And he reveals how their discoveries will transform every sector of society - from revolutionising how we use the internet, to transforming our understanding of consciousness.<br/><br/>Vlahos's research leads him to one fundamental question: What happens when our computers become as articulate, compassionate, and creative as we are?<br/><br/>'Brilliant and essential . . . You'll find insights and meaning on every page, and you'll keep turning them. This book is dynamite.' NICHOLAS THOMPSON, editor-in-chief of Wired<br/><br/>'Conversational AI is a genuine paradigm shift in our experience with technology. Vlahos brings the whole story to life . . . A thoughtful and enjoyable read.' TOM GRUBER, co-creator of Siri<br/><br/>'The baton of disruption has been passed from the smart phone to voice, and Vlahos helps make sense of this tectonic shift.' SCOTT GALLOWAY, author of The Four<br/><br/>'Voice computing is revolutionising the way we interact with our devices. Talk to Me offers a road map showing how we got to this point and the opportunities and risks that lie ahead.' MARTIN FORD, author of The Rise of the Robots<br/><br/>'James Vlahos has written an excellent book on how voice computing has become more and more of a growing presence in our everyday world.' RAY KURZWEIL, author of The Singularity Is Near<br/><br/> |
