Voice as a Feature: A Silent Revolution in AI-Enabled SoCs
by Jonah McLeod on 05-26-2025 at 10:00 am

Voice as a Feature

When Apple introduced Siri in 2011, it was the first serious attempt to make voice interaction a mainstream user interface. Embedded into the iPhone 4S, Siri brought voice into consumers’ lives not as a standalone product, but as a built-in feature—a hands-free way to interact with an existing device. Siri set the expectation… Read More
