Synthetic Sound

Trained a model to create a synthetic sound that sounds like me. This is after training it with about 30 sentences – which isn’t a lot.

To create a synthetic voice, you enters some text, using which is then “transcribed” using #AI and your synthetic voice is generated. In my case, at first I had said AI, which was generated also as “aeey” (you can have a listen here). So for the next one, changed the AI to Artificial Intelligence.

One does need to be mindful of #DigitalEthics, as this technology improves further. This is with only a very small sampling of data. Imagine what could happen, with public figures – where their recordings are available quite easily in the public domain. I am thinking the ‘digital twang’ is one of the signatures and ways to stamp this as a generated sound.

This blog is my personal blog and while it does reflect my experiences in my professional life, this is just my thoughts. Most of the entries are technical though sometimes they can vary from the wacky to even political – however that is quite rare. Quite often, I have been asked what’s up with the “gibberish” and the funny title of the blog? Some people even going the extra step to say that, this is a virus that infected their system (ahem) well. [:D] It actually is quite simple, and if you have still not figured out then check out this link – whats in a name?
