Speech in the context of AI refers to the field of speech recognition and synthesis. Speech recognition involves converting spoken words into text, while speech synthesis converts text into spoken audio. The field has advanced significantly in recent years thanks to deep learning techniques and large speech datasets, enabling more accurate and natural-sounding speech interfaces.
