As we’ve been designing Yala’s robo-voice, it’s been anything but easy. Sure, there’s the whole robot cliché but we’re trying to go beyond it. Our goals have been:

“Initializing machine-learning vectors…”
Do we imagine what retro-bots would say if they could speak?
“Skidoo, humdinger, wisenheimer”
What about plain-speak? Nothing fancy or artsy.
