Could just the sound of a voice be enough to diagnose a person? The National Institutes of Health thinks so.

The organization is funding a large-scale research project to collect voice samples and use the data to create AI that helps diagnose people just by the sound of their voice.

It goes to show how a simple spark of an idea could open up a whole new line of thinking. Will one of today’s job listings spark your interest?
