On Tuesday, the pioneering function of audio translation for podcasts, which can be achieved thanks to artificial intelligence, was demonstrated.
AI can translate podcasts into different languages so that the podcaster’s voice remains the original.
Developed by Spotify, this feature uses the latest innovations, including OpenAI’s recently released audio generation technology, to match the original artist’s style, providing an authentic listening experience that is more personal and natural than traditional synths.
In the first round, the service provider worked with podcasters to develop the functionality as follows:
- dax shepard,
- monica badman,
- lex friedman,
- Bill Simmons
- And Stephen Bartlett.
Spotify’s Vice President commented on the development as follows:
We believe that a thoughtful approach to AI can help build deeper connections between listeners and creators, a key component of Spotify’s mission to unleash the potential of human creativity.
This is just the beginning in their development history, and as time progresses, they will try to make the podcast listening experience as personal as possible for users. Currently, more than 100 million people listen to podcasts on the platform, and that number is still growing. The streaming service is constantly looking for ways to break down barriers to storytelling.
