Google says six new voices are coming to the Google Assistant, including that of singer John Legend. The company made the announcement at its I/O developer conference today. These voices were created through WaveNet, which the company says helped it not only record John Legend’s voice, but then incorporate it into the assistant voice repertoire to work for any query. Legend’s voice, among others, will come to the Assistant later this year. The new voices will be included in phones and home speakers, of course.
