Tamil (தமிழ்) speech data for AI
How much open Tamil speech data exists, where the gaps are, and how to get consented Tamil data collected.
Tamil is relatively well covered, but open data is mostly short read-aloud sentences. Natural conversation, call-centre and domain audio, children, older speakers and regional accents are still hard to find.
