# Hello Common Voice Community

Last week some of our team have been hosting a workshop at Re: Publica on [“Speak up! Exploring Decentralised Voice Assistant Futures through Speculative Design”](https://re-publica.com/en/node/382). We discussed cultural to environmental factors affecting the future and the current usage of voice assistants.
