Google has announced that Google Assistant will receive six new voices today. Google CEO Sundar Pichai revealed the news on stage at Google I/O 2018, where he also said that John Legend's voice would come to the AI assistant later this year.
Male and female voices are included in the new batch and users can assign different voices to respond to different family members (once it has learned their voice). They'll be available for Google Home products, smartphones, and more.
John Legend, of course, didn't provide an answer to every single possible question someone could ask Assistant. Instead, Google used its new AI technology, "Wavenet," to model Legend's unique voice based on samples. Pichai said Wavenet would enable the Google Assistant voices to be closer to how humans speak in terms of pitch, the pace, and the pauses in between.
