2020 Voice AI Predictions Part 1 with Ware, Bass, and Lens-FitzGerald - Voicebot Podcast Ep 130

Today we have part 1 of a two-part series on 2020 predictions
with guests from Australia, the UK, and Holland.


 


I want to give a shoutout to all of the Voice Insider subscribers
that offered their predictions for 2020. We had 46 of them in all
and you can read the full story at Voicebot.ai. Today, I have 3
of them on the mic to elaborate on their predictions and we will
have three more in the next episode. 


 


We start this week with the view from Asia and Australia from
Matt Ware of First, a leading digital and voice agency. He has
predictions about the rise of Asia in voice and what will happen
with discovery on the leading platforms this year. 


 


Next we talk Apple and Siri with Katy Bass of Altavox in the UK.
Will there be a Siri OS? Will Apple do something meaningful with
Siri in 2020? Katy shares her perspective. 


 


We wrap up Part 1 with Maarten Lens-FitzGerald who joins us from
Holland and discusses the single word that will describe the
sentiment around voice in 2020. We even score whether his 2019
prediction came to pass. Is there a voice winter? Maarten has
some thoughts on that too. Enjoy!
