Howard, Google Project Tackles Bias in AI

Howard University and Google have launched Project Elevate Black Voices, an effort to make speech recognition technology more inclusive. The team has collected 600 hours of voice data from Black speakers across 32 states to build a dataset of African American English. Howard will retain ownership and ensure its use benefits Black communities, with initial access limited to HBCUs.
