BSL AI Glossary - Voice Assistant definition


Translation: A voice assistant is a software system that processes spoken instructions and provides responses or performs tasks. For example, if I ask a question it will answer back such as asking "what is the weather like today" or turning lights on or off through systems such as Alexa. It uses voice recognition to convert spoken words into text so it can determine what action has been requested.
