Google Research has released WAXAL, a large-scale, open-access dataset designed to advance speech technology for 27 African languages. The resource includes approximately 1,846 hours of transcribed spontaneous speech for automatic speech recognition and over 565 hours of high-fidelity recordings for text-to-speech synthesis. This initiative aims to bridge the digital divide by empowering the African AI ecosystem to develop inclusive voice-enabled technologies that reflect the continent's linguistic diversity. AI
