What if the machine can’t understand your language or your accent? And how to guarantee your right to data-privacy? The COMPRISE project launched in late 2018 succeeded in creating such “a privacy-friendly, more cost-effective and inclusive voice interface”. We have here the honour of interviewing the project coordinator of COMPRISE, Emmanuel Vincent, from Inria Nancy – Grand Est (Multispeech team Inria-Loria), along with two of his colleagues from Inria Lille – Nord Europe, Nathalie Vauquier, the engineer in charge of Inria’s software development in COMPRISE, and Brij Srivastava, a young researcher who has joined Inria Startup Studio on the 1st of October 2021 to create a startup exploiting the results of the project.
