How AI Learns to Speak
- AI learns to speak by mapping text to audio patterns.
- Initial outputs are robotic but improve as training data accumulates.
Training Efficient Deepfake Voices
- Fine-tuning a generic model with just hours of voice data creates a convincing deepfake voice.
- Data compression is used to speed training but reduces voice quality temporarily.
Audio Deepfakes Can Be Unauthorized
- Enough clean audio enables voice cloning without a subject's permission.
- Public figures' extensive recordings make unauthorized deepfakes easy to create.
