Generative audio
Generative audio refers to the creation of
audio clips.[citation needed] This technology differs from synthesized voices such as Apple's Siri or Amazon's Alexa
, which use a collection of fragments that are stitched together on demand.
Generative audio works by using neural networks to learn the statistical properties of an audio source, then reproduces those properties.[1]
Implications
With this technology, a person's voice
can be replicated to speak phrases that they may have never spoken. This could lead to a synthetic version of a public figure's voice being used against them.[2]
Technology
This method uses a
deep machine learning technique where two machine learning models work against each other to create realistic audio.[3]
