Fluent uses deep learning to enable high performance \u2018speech understanding\u2019 irrespective of language and accent and in noisy environments.  The technology can also enhance privacy by being run offline and requires far less training data than competing technologies. This makes it the ideal approach for OEMs to add voice interfaces to their devices,\u201d said William Tunstall-Pedoe.<\/h5><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"tm-spacer\" id=\"tm-spacer-69eba9511818f\"><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"tm-heading  left tm-animation move-up\" id=\"tm-heading-69eba95118224\">\n\t<h5 class=\"heading\" style=\"\">\u201cWe are thrilled to welcome William on our Advisory Board.

As a full member of Cambridge Angels and a fellow of the Creative Destruction Lab (CDL), Mr. Tunstall-Pedoe now spends his time helping and investing in Artificial Intelligence start-ups. He is focused on supporting the advancement of state-of-the-art computer technologies that have the potential for enormous global impact.
