I would love to see this done in a more targeted way.

Because they wanted to avoid that a sentence gets recorded more than one time. The engineers said that this would decrease the quality of the dataset for machine learning.

But it’s a cycle… Would it not be possible to avoid this by requiring the person to add a new phrase when speaking?

@stergro is correct: if we have lots of people speaking the same sentence, this reduces the quality of the voice data for machine learning practitioners training models. For speech recognition, we need more diverse data. So, a different way to approach this could be to use the browser to elicit sen…

There are so many ways to fix this, stopping advertising in languages with few contributions does not seem to be logical

In an ideal world, one speaker - one sentence, infinite sentences, and speakers… But the main problem is the scarcity of the text-corpora, because of the CC0 requirement. In my opinion, this is where community work is most necessary. Otherwise, AFAIK, a sentence being recorded by 2 or 3 different p…

This could be solved by changing the homepage of the ad according to the need of the language, with a message explaining the priority at the moment.
