Abstract

Nowadays, AI technology is developing rapidly and slowly covering all areas of life. AI facilitates different parts of our lives and provides us with a lot of help. For example, in learning, students can acquire knowledge more conveniently through AI, and buyers can find suitable goods more conveniently through AI when shopping. At the same time, more and more technology is used in the field of voice agents, which allows humans to enjoy a lot of better services. In this article, we will study to better understand "how to understand human natural language and how the repository of knowledge is built." In the article we build with examples and deep learning models (CNN and RNN) through databases. Through repeated research and analysis, we can find that there are some limitations in this paper, such as the single learning model and the insufficient elaboration of data analysis and signal system technology. But at the same time, we also found a lot of future application prospects that voice agents can develop, it can be applied in many fields, such as finance, medical care, education and so on. For example, in children's education, parents can use voice agents to set time limits and monitor their children's progress. Existing digital interactive storytelling systems have limitations in terms of available storybooks and hand-crafted issues. Voice agents are becoming more popular in everyday scenarios, and more users are adopting devices like Siri and Google Assistant. In the future, conversational agents are expected to play an important role in oral communication with users.
