In what ways are emerging technologies helping computers to mimic human capabilities?
It is amazing the ways computers and other software devices can translate human activity, especially speech recoginition. Speech recognition is used in a multitude of ways such as with phone companies and in education the use of the programs Microsoft and Kurzweil have developed voice recognition. The capability of this type of technology will be unlimted in the future as it will be applied to cars, applicances and additional educational software.
Speech synthesis is a computers ability to duplicate sounds/words of the human voice. This technology has not reached its full potential but has the capability of impacting the lives of people who are voice-impaired. Computer speech could be used as a tool in education for special needs children. Speech recognition and speech synthesis are emerging technologies that are continuously improving and will heavily impact society.
