Teaching machines to understand sound is a new and exciting application for artificial intelligence. We are all familiar with speech and music recognition, but there is a far richer world of sound all around us. As the products we use as consumers have a greater sense of hearing they can start to unlock some exceptional human experiences. Each episode of the podcast we will be joined by expert guests with really interesting perspectives on the subject. We will be talking to people who will shed light on the importance and role of hearing and its applications, as well as people working at the cutting edge of acoustic science, data and machine learning.
