The modern technology of voice cloning

Man is the best creature of creation. Of particular note is the use of the voice, among other features that make man unique, along with other living creatures. The voices of other animals are almost the same. But in the case of human beings, one's voice is different. No one matches with anyone. So it is very interesting to imitate the voice. And that is what I am discussing this time.

Voices can be duplicated on a computer using artificial intelligence software. All you have to do is record your voice for a few minutes. In this way the software knows the voice and accent of the voice. Speech, pronunciation, speed, how loud or loud the voice is when speaking, the way in which words are breathed, and how light or serious the tone of voice are all can be mimicked by this software. After learning all the features of the voice, typing a word or sentence on the computer keyboard, the computer can represent it exactly in the voice of that person. Moreover, if you need a fake voice, various kinds of emotions - such as anger, fear, joy, love, estrangement or annoyance, this software can evoke. But this requires a record of at least 10 minutes for the person whose voice will be cloned.

This technology was first developed for medical use. This technology is used to artificially create the vocal cords of patients who have lost the ability to speak due to illness. This technology works using artificial intelligence (AI) software. AI has the ability to understand needs. But now not only patients with voice loss, but also voiceover artists are using this technology. It saves their time and reduces their hard work. Moreover, various types of voices can be created through it. Even transgender voices are being created where it is not clear whether the voice is male or female. Someone's speech made through voice cloning can also be translated into different languages.

Professor Patel first invented the technology in 2014, thinking of people who are in a coma or have lost their voice in a major illness. But the ultimate concern is that this technology will lead to a cyber security crisis. This technology is so accurate that there is no way to know which is real and which is fake voice. As a result, you received a voice message from one of your friends in the email, which is difficult to understand whether it is actually your friend or not. Suppose the boss of your office calls you and asks for information about your sensitive project. In this way, your personal or official important and sensitive information can easily fall into the hands of the vicious circle. This matter of voice cloning without the permission of others is called Deepfake. Therefore, in order to prevent deepfake, necessary laws and punishments should be put in place to make this technology easily available to the people.
