Voice prints and children’s rights

In May 2019, SoapBox Labs collaborated with thought leader and anthropologist Dr. Veronica Barassi on “Voice Prints and Children’s Rights,” a submission to the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR).

The paper discusses the promises and opportunities of speech recognition software, as well as the risks posed to children’s privacy when voice solutions are not built with children’s best interests in mind.
