Genderless Voice

Interactive installation at The Smithsonian

Q is the First Genderless Voice, created to end gender bias in AI assistants. Technology companies often choose to gender technology believing it will make people more comfortable adopting it. Unfortunately this reinforces a binary perception of gender, and perpetuates stereotypes that many have fought hard to progress.  In close cooperation with Copenhagen Pride, Virtue, Equal AI, & thirtysoundsgood Koalition created an iconic digital application that enabled users to experience and interact with both Q visually and sonically. ‍

Many technology companies gender their AI assistants, which reinforces a binary perception of gender and perpetuates stereotypes
The Q genderless voice was created to challenge this common practice and provide a non-binary option for AI assistants.
With the Q genderless voice, users can experience and interact with an AI assistant that is not associated with any specific gender. This promotes inclusivity and diversity in technology.
The Q genderless voice offers a solution to the problem of gendering technology and encourages companies to consider more inclusive approaches in the future.
