The company has gone further this year, introducing something it calls “Listen for Atypical Speech.” This uses on-device machine learning to recognize user speech patterns and is designed to make speech recognition systems easier and more accurate for users with acquired or progressive conditions such as cerebral palsy, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), or stroke.
