No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Maybe the term you are searching for is "AI voice cloning". The engine of https://elevenlabs.io/voice-cloning claims to be able to understand and reproduce even Danish.
Edit: They seem to require some voice verification to make sure the voice is yours. Which is odd in your case.
https://speechify.com/da should allow to recreate the voice of "your beloved one", at least they mention it on their German page.
I did sign up for ElevenLabs, unfortunately they cannot allow me to clone a dead persons voice, as per their FAQ:
You may only clone your own voice or a voice you have the rights to clone. For added security, when creating a Professional Voice Clone we require users to complete a Voice Captcha mechanism by reading a text prompt within a specific time to confirm your voice matches the training samples you upload for training. If there’s a match, your request is sent for fine-tuning. If not, you’ll have to reach out via our help center to have your voice verified manually.
Now I'm sure it wouldn't be an issue to get the legal rights, but when I spoke to their support, they did not have any way to verify beyond the captcha.
Would it be worth reaching out to them on social media? Something like this would be great PR for them.
If you have the equipment (mainly an Nvidia GPU that has the ability) doing voice cloning locally is the way to go if you keep running into legal issues. Plus being on your computer you may be able to tweak and try different methods to get the best results for your needs. A year ago this would have been a maybe, but there's a lot out there to look at and try. See what others have done first in videos and such and follow their lead.
Just find A github project that does AI voice replication...it would be free
Check it
https://github.com/topics/voice-cloning
So e of these may have the advantage that you can use your voice as carrier for the words but they'll come out sounding like him so you can do the same inflections he would have done.
Private Message me if you have questions I'd love to dig into this but I don't read thread responses
Maybe https://speechify.com/da/ works. At least they mention the recreation of the voice of "your beloved one" on their German page.
I can't find this. Where is it on the German page?
https://speechify.com/de/voice-cloning/
Alternatively, https://www.resemble.ai/voice-cloning/ could do it, as they state:
However, Danish is only in their 'Pro' tier list, so you should perhaps try it with some English text first.
Thank you again for diving in to this. It looks like speechify don't support Danish.
On Resemble AI, they have something like Elevenlabs:
For professional voice cloning through data upload, we require explicit, verifiable consent from the voice talent. This involves providing a clear audio consent statement along with the training data, so that we can confirm the identity. By uploading voice data, you're confirming that you have such consent, which should align with our guidelines. The consent recording must follow our template, e.g., "I acknowledge my recordings will be used by [Your Company] to create a synthetic voice by Resemble AI." For any questions regarding consent, please reach out to us.
I will try to contact them regarding my use, which is neither commercial, nor using "voice talent" exactly.
