The conversion of written material into an auditory format mimicking the vocal characteristics of a specific individual has become increasingly prevalent. For example, typed words can be processed and articulated in a manner that emulates the speech patterns and intonation associated with a well-known public figure.
This type of audio synthesis can serve multiple purposes. It provides a novel method for content creation, offering a unique and potentially engaging way to deliver information. Its roots lie in advancements in speech synthesis and voice cloning technologies, fields that have seen considerable progress in recent years. The ability to realistically replicate a person’s voice offers opportunities in entertainment, education, and accessibility.
