Description:  

Participants will accurately identify and label conversational events within recorded audio files. Each recording features a user interacting with a voice assistant. These interactions typically include an initial request, a response from the assistant, and sometimes follow-up questions. 

Participants will carefully listen to each recording and apply precise, time-stamped labels to identify who spoke and when according to detailed project guidelines. Accuracy and consistency are critical to the success of this work.
