OpenAI has unveiled Voice Engine, an advanced feature of its text-to-speech API that lets users create synthetic voices with just a 15-second audio sample.

The Details:

  • Developed over two years, Voice Engine enhances ChatGPT's vocal interactions and has been adopted by Spotify for podcast dubbing. Its development employed a careful mix of licensed and publicly sourced data.

  • OpenAI prioritizes ethical practices by requiring clear consent for cloning voices, excluding vulnerable groups and public figures from its scope. Initially, access to Voice Engine is granted to a select group of developers focused on applications with low risk and high social value.

  • With the rise of deepfakes, OpenAI has implemented strict controls, including watermarking to make cloned voices identifiable. The company is also considering extra safety measures, such as having users read unique texts, to ensure responsible use of voice technology.

OpenAI's introduction of Voice Engine highlights the challenges and ethical questions surrounding voice synthesis technology, especially concerning its effect on voice actors and the broader implications for society
