Its standout product however is the text-to-speech model. It is the first voice assistant to combine AI capabilities with real-world systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The integration of SoundHound with Perplexity adds source-based real-world search capability to its AI chat.<\/strong> Perplexity is an alternative to traditional search engines, where you can directly pose your questions and receive concise, accurate answers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div align=\"center\"><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">We\u2019re partnering with <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SoundHound?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@SoundHound<\/a> (Nasdaq: SOUN), a global leader in voice AI.

Any AI assistant powered by SoundHound will be able to search for answers to web queries in real-time and can be used in any device from IoT home devices to car voice assistants, TVs, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is what they said in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20240509196718\/en\/SoundHound-AI-and-Perplexity-Partner-to-Bring-Online-LLMs-to-Next-Gen-Voice-Assistants-Across-Cars-and-IoT-Devices\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">official press release<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>&#8220;Through this integration with SoundHound\u2019s Chat AI assistant, we\u2019re one step closer to our goal of making Perplexity available to everyone across every device they use,\u201d said Dmitry Shevelenko, Chief Business Officer at Perplexity AI. \u201cWith the growing popularity of voice AI, we\u2019re allowing users to more easily access the information they need, when they need it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<cite>Mike Zagorsek, Chief Operations Officer at SoundHound AI<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Take the example of cooking in the kitchen. Users can query the current prices of required ingredients, the shops nearby that sell them and currently cheaper alternatives, all without touching a keyboard. Amazing, isn&#8217;t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"jeg_video_container jeg_video_content\"><iframe title=\"SoundHound AI and Perplexity Partner to Bring Online LLMs to Its Next Gen Voice Assistants\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/22uZsaVtbMw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Another unique feature of this partnership is the incorporation of proprietary arbitration technology that is developed to identify the most appropriate responses, which reduces the possibility of a model \u201challucinating\u201d. Hallucinations are a major issue in almost all static LLM chatbots where the model responds with made-up inaccurate facts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Reduction of hallucinations is a major breakthrough for the reliable use of AI in real-world applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, SoundHound has not yet clarified exactly which LLMs from Perplexity it uses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is the significance of this collaboration?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>SoundHound is a widely used service across multiple industries, and adding AI-powered voice capabilities adds immense value to the product. Their chat AI will be able to provide up-to-date responses whenever and wherever users need simply with a sentence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This level of smart assistants is making SoundHound AI chat one of the strongest AI-powered voice assistants, comparable to Alexa and Google Home. Not just that, the strategic partnership offers Perplexity AI the chance to greatly widen its reach, taking it closer to its goal of making Perplexity search available on any device users may need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With OpenAI gearing up to release its own AI search engine, this collaboration strengthens the position of Perplexity as a top-of-the-line AI search engine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The partnership between Perplexity and SoundHound actively involves AI in the daily lives of people. It increases the accessibility to AI like never before, enabling accurate results within seconds, no matter if you\u2019re at home or travelling.
