Some time ago, around January of this year, a Google spokesperson announced that the plan of bringing singer John Legend's voice into the Google Assistant platform had a few problems, and more likely will be delayed a few months more than originally planned. However, luckily, Google has solved the problem soon and allows users to use this interesting option from today.

At times, Google Assistant only owns a unique voice, but today, users can choose up to 6 different voice options, under various English variants such as English - American, English - Indian , and England - Australia.

1. 'Sister Google' has just been updated to a more natural new voice, invited to listen

To bring John Legend's voice to Google Assistant, WaveNet artificial intelligence model engineers had to train their deep neural networks with John Legend's voice recordings for months. Besides, in order to ensure the most natural and authentic voice as possible, post-processing was paid special attention by Google engineers.

First introduced in 2017 by DeepMind, AI WaveNet model has been used to create all 6 voice options currently used on Google Assistant.

It is clear that John Legend's appearance on Google Assistant is just the beginning of Google's plan with the ambition of bringing more famous singers and actors to their virtual assistant platform. Bringing a long list of familiar voice options can be an effective way to expand the user's options to personalize Google Assistant according to each person's preferences. Besides, creating AI assistants that match the mood or personality of the user can also be another promising step in this direction.
