TED: Synthetic voices, as unique as fingerprints | Rupal Patel

The video discusses the uniqueness of human voiceprints and the challenges faced by individuals using generic synthetic voices. It introduces a project aimed at creating personalized voices for those with speech disorders by combining the preserved vocal source of the individual with the filter of a surrogate donor. The process involves recording various utterances to build a voice bank, which is then used to synthesize a custom voice. The video highlights the potential impact of this technology and envisions a future where diverse surrogate donors contribute to creating unique vocal identities.
