Quantum computing might be one way to advance the field of NLP.
On Wednesday, the companyCambridge Quantum announced lambeq, which it claims is the first quantum toolkit for NLP.
“The way quantum computers handle NLP is very different from classical machines.
Coecke said that quantum NLP could lead to better voice assistants and translation tools.
Another promising approach to improving speech recognition, calleddata-centric AI, was launched earlier this year.
Data-centric AI focuses on the quality of data used to train a model instead of improving the algorithms.
