8x8 Expands AI Studio with Live Voice Translation
8×8, Inc. announced a series of updates to its 8×8 AI Studio platform, including live simultaneous voice translation (early availability) supporting 13 languages, selectable multi-LLM support (Claude, Gemini, Grok, ChatGPT), one-click connectors to more than fifteen enterprise apps, voice-driven agent building, and automated IVR-to-AI call-flow conversion.

LinkedIn rolls AI job search worldwide
LinkedIn is expanding its AI-powered job search globally, adding German, Spanish, French and Portuguese language support. The feature uses natural language processing to interpret user goals and match descriptions with job postings, and will roll out worldwide this month beyond its English-only availability. The system emphasizes a dialog-based approach over rigid filters, allowing users to describe the type of work and industry they want without knowing exact terms. Erran Berger, LinkedIn’s Vice President of Product Engineering, says the AI analyzes user descriptions to surface relevant roles, including positions candidates might not have previously considered. Current usage data show more than 1.3 million members access the AI-powered search daily, with over 25 million total searches per week. This multilingual rollout is part of LinkedIn’s broader AI strategy, which also includes automated suggestions, profile summaries, and drafting assistance.
AI-moderated Interviews Scale Qualitative Market Research
The article explains how large language models (LLMs) and AI-moderated interview platforms are transforming qualitative market research by enabling high-volume, context-rich conversations that capture linguistic nuance and behavioural signals. Startup platforms (e.g., Outset, Listen Labs, Simile) have raised significant VC funding to commercialize generative-AI interview tools. Case studies include Microsoft running 250 AI-moderated interviews via Listen Labs for a “Frontier Listening” workflow, Anthropic reporting 80,000 interviews across 159 countries and 70 languages, and brands such as Sweetgreen and Unilever using AI-driven mobile or video interviews to generate faster, cheaper, and deeper insights. The authors argue AI interviews can complement—not wholly replace—human-led qualitative methods, and call for validation work on reliability, external validity and appropriate use cases (sensitive topics, time-constrained participants, synthetic personas and digital twins).
