| : AI Allows Creation of Voice Clones The advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) is making it possible to clone voices, The Economist reported. Voice cloning technology uses AI to create a replica of a person's voice, enabling those to have their words reproduced with a machine that sounds just like them. This technology is expected to have many applications in various fields such as customer service, entertainment, and healthcare. In customer service, businesses will be able to create a voice clone of a customer service representative to offer automated assistance. In entertainment, voice cloning will make it possible to create a virtual "twin" for characters in video games and films. In healthcare, voice cloning can improve the accuracy and speed of patient diagnosis by helping to diagnose speech disorders. The development of voice cloning has raised some ethical considerations. For example, companies could use this technology to manipulate people's emotions by creating a voice clone of someone they know or trust. Additionally, the manipulation of voice recordings could be used as a weapon of disinformation or used to create false recordings. Although there are some ethical concerns with the development of voice cloning, the potential applications of this technology are vast and there are many exciting possibilities this technology can create. As AI continues to make advancements, voice cloning will become more commonplace and it's expected to have a huge impact on many aspects of our lives. |
