What Does This Mean?
A synthetic voice produced by artificial intelligence, either a text-to-speech voice that reads written text aloud or a clone that imitates a particular person's voice from recordings. It is used for narration, dubbing and assistants, and also for impersonation scams.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
""The narrator turned out to be an AI voice trained on a few minutes of audio.""
LORE & ORIGIN
Wikipedia's speech synthesis article dates the neural era to DeepMind's WaveNet (September 2016) and notes ElevenLabs launching a browser-based text-to-speech platform in January 2023; its deepfake article describes voice cloning from a few seconds of speech and a 2019 case in which a caller reportedly used audio deepfake technology to impersonate a company chief executive.
