Voice synthesis is a technology that generates human-like speech from text. It uses algorithms and machine learning to create vocal sounds that mimic natural speech patterns, intonation, and emotion. This technology is widely used in applications like virtual assistants, audiobooks, and accessibility tools for individuals with speech impairments.
The process involves analyzing recorded speech samples to understand how different sounds are produced. By combining these sounds, voice synthesis systems can produce a wide range of voices and accents. Notable examples of voice synthesis include Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, and Apple's Siri.
