A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Yeah I immediately disregard all AI propaganda that references "Her." This is for rubes and suckers.
I totally get what you're saying but did you listen to the recordings? This might be a breakthrough.
But is it that different than the podcasts voices Google already generate with NotebookLM since a while ago?
I used Notebook LM to create a ten minute podcast but it took a lot of repeated attempts with tweaks of the prompt to make sure there was no stupid mispronouncing. Even the final product required editing out two words which were not even human (just glitches).
Not understanding pronunciation of words is to be expected, especially when they are acronyms but sometimes it was really dumb grammar.
Still very impressive but not quite there yet.
Or go try the demo. It IS eerily uncanny. It's not at the point where it would fool you for long, but it's close enough to get caught up in it from time to time.
Lmfao, perish the thought
