As a result, we\u2019re pleased to announce that The United States Patent and Trademark Office has recognized our significant achievement and innovation, awarding us a patent for this intellectual property.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The patent specifically pertains to our QA system (Question Answering systems), which utilizes different natural language processing (NLP) approaches, such as syntactic and semantic parsing, for understanding and identifying the key entities and their relations in a question.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What does that mean (without writing a PhD level academic paper)? It means our AI can not only communicate with the end (human) user, using both explicit and implicit learnings, encompassing nuance and ingesting industry-specific jargon, but it can also vocalize.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, our AI can talk.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fastcompany.com\/90764042\/my-ai-can-talk-can-yours\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">In my most recent article for Fast Company<\/a>, I go further into this subject, showing how we developed our talking AI while examining the building blocks towards true cognition within conversational AI, including computational linguistics and Word Sense Disambiguation. If you want to know more on the latter, our Co-Founder, Neha Prabhugaonkar, Head of Data Science at Crux Intelligence, expanded on this in her academic paper: <a href=\"https:\/\/rcs.cic.ipn.mx\/2015_90\/Word%20Sense%20Induction%20for%20Better%20Lexical%20Choice.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Word Sense Induction for Better Lexical Choice<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the vocalization front, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fastcompany.com\/90764042\/my-ai-can-talk-can-yours\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">I told Fast Company readers<\/a> about acoustics training to handle anomalies, and the necessity to provide flexibility in audio presentation styles to achieve real scale.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, I also delve into the history of AIs-that-talk &#8211; including the real backstory on Siri (before Apple bought it from SRI International) and what happened when Steve Jobs called SRI \u201cout of the blue\u201d that day.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>FOR MORE ABOUT CRUX INTELLIGENCE\u2019S AI,<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fastcompany.com\/90764042\/my-ai-can-talk-can-yours\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>READ KATHY LEAKE\u2019S ARTICLE IN FAST COMPANY<\/strong><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to PwC\u2019s (PricewaterhouseCoopers) Artificial Intelligence Evolution: Main Trends \u201cThe Artificial intelligence market is expected to reach a value of $53.1 Bn by 2026,\u201d this includes the Intelligent virtual assistant (IVA) \/ conversational AI market which is \u201cexpected to reach US$ 23 bn in 2027.\u201d However, there is a vast chasm of understanding regarding text-to-speech [&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn btn-secondary understrap-read-more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/tdw.co.in\/crux\/meet-our-freshly-patented-talking-ai\/\">Read More&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":4387,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[48,62],"tags":[99],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Meet Our Freshly Patented Talking AI | Crux Intelligence<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Learn how to tell the difference between chatbots &amp;
