Vivo (voice-in/voice-out): The Coming Age Of Talking Computers - Softcover

Reseña del editor

A futurist presents an atypically positive view of the predicted demise of the written word. Crossman (Vista Community College, Berkeley, CA) discusses the role of talking computers in creating an egalitarian, global oral culture by mid-century, and the technological and evolutionary "engines" driving this radical shift. Frequently Asked Questions conclude the book. The author is the founder/director of the CompSpeak 2050 Institute for the Study of Talking Computers and Oral Cultures.
