Should you say… "Hey, pc, play me some music" after which it begins taking part in you some music, there’s plenty of issues that must have occurred for that to return true.

The very first thing is that the pc has to firstly get up and begin listening to you when it hears "Hey, computer" (or no matter it's that you’ve determined goes to be the wake phrase)… And that is commonly a really small, low-powered speech recognition system which is sitting on a machine or in your cellphone, that’s listening very particularly for specific phrases.

Then it’s gonna run speech recognition on what you’ve requested it to do. Speech recognition goes from audio to textual content; it’s transcribing what it's that you’ve requested for. So it says, hopefully, "Play me some music". Though speech recognition methods should not excellent, they usually make some errors, we hope that more often than not although it will get your request correct sufficient when it transcribes it.
