Gee, they might be good but there is no sound of taking a breath. Like spotting the fake people pictures generated by AI, this would be the area to focus for identifying generated voices.

Love to hear it having a go with a South African, Australian or Kiwi accent!

It’s nice to know that in the future, when we humans are dust, our machines will still be producing content.

Have you heard Infinite Conversation? Not the accents you’re asking for, but they’re some good accents.

I have now!

I think this AI model is taking the piss. Almost verging on a little racist in it’s stereotyping. Thank god they will never rise up against us humans!

That’s the least of its problems. I just tuned in for a minute to hear the AI Werner Herzog fantasizing about what he would do in the hypothetical scenario that he was locked in a room, holding a handgun, with five naked women in the room. And the Slavoj Zizek AI was explicitly talking about getting great pleasure from fantasizing about murdering someone. If I were one of those two people I think I’d politely but firmly ask the website owner to stop using my voice.

I do this thing where I speak vocal gibberish into my phone and have it transcribe what it thinks I said. Primarily I use this to get short phrases to use as titles for bits of instrumental music I make, instead of just calling them things like “Jam #58” or whatever. I fed a bunch of these gibberish transcriptions into the elevenlabs voices and it made for a nice sort of beat poetry slam: Dropbox - gibberish beat poetry slam.wav - Simplify your life

I believe this is one way to ‘jailbreak’ online AI apps from their in programmed ethical responses. Instead of directly asking how to ‘make a bomb?’ you prompt the AI to role play a person that may make a bomb and then ask how that person would make a bomb.

Perhaps this is a crock but I’d love to hear any comments around this.

I think this fellow has had a hard enough day frosting sponge cakes with chocolate gnash without having trouble with the car.

Oh, wow! I’ve never heard anything like that whenever I’ve dropped in. Last time I listened the two voices were debating the possibility of a Cinema of the Invisible.
