[{"type":"text","content":"\nVoice AI category leader unveils new approach, reimagines speech technology for customer service and restaurant use cases\n\n SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--\nSoundHound AI, Inc. (Nasdaq: SOUN) (“SoundHound”), a global leader in voice artificial intelligence, today introduced Dynamic Interaction™, a category-level breakthrough in conversational AI that raises the bar for human-computer interaction by not only recognizing and understanding speech, but also responding and acting in real-time.\nThis press release features multimedia.
