    Hi Aaron, voice recognition is thriving these days. The other day I accidentally turned on voice recognition on Powerpoint, so the entire time during my presentation there is subtitles showing alongside my slides. Also, YouTube has embedded voice recognition a long while ago, the automated subtitle is not 100% precise if the speaker has an accent, but it is still very helpful for learners to capture the majority of the conversation. Audiobooks have also been so popular these days. What are some of your encounters with voice recognition? Keen to hear. Thank you.

    Great analysis Aaron! It’s interesting how we both chose to focus on speech recognition technology, but I took another turn and focused on the issue of pronunciation anxiety. I believe this technology could be the next big solution for speaking and pronunciation issues that language learners experience. You can also check the app ELSA Speak, it’s one of the best speech-recognition apps for language learning that is run by AI.

    Interesting website Aaron. How does Duolingo fit into an application like this?
