Today, an episode so packed with so many amazing folks, four of them, in fact, that we can’t wait to dive right in. But first, some quick scene setting.

A few weeks back, your humble pod accepted the invitation from the team at MODEV and attended The Voice Summit. It brought together over 2,000 people working at the front edge of voice, AI, Natural Language Processing, and conversational commerce. We hope there’s a Voice Summit 2019 because we were able to sit down with too many brilliant people.

First up, Patricia Scanlon on the trust, and data, needed to create voice recognition for children. Then Adva Levin lays out persona, gaming and behavior hurdles when building skills for kids. Bree Glaeser talks about finding natural language through research and the challenges brands will have in the voice future. Last, but by no stretch of the imagination least, Cathy Pearl discusses her experience with Actions on Google, disambiguation and the social nature of voice assistants. 

So what are you waiting for? Hit play!
