Clone yourself with Azure Custom Neural Voice - Callum Whyte - NDC Oslo 2023

Everyone has at some point wished they could clone themselves - to do the dishes, or work more efficiently. With advancements and improved accessibility of AI, this becomes more of a reality...
This session will explore how to use Azure Custom Neural Voice to create a synthesised version of our own voice for use in a range of fun and practical applications - telephony, voice overs, or even attending meetings on your behalf...!
We'll cover the basics of training and tweaking a model of our own voice, with minimal code, that can be used to turn text into natural-sounding speech.
Advancing further, we'll learn some ways to train our model with enhanced training data. As an example we'll take a larger amount of audio, such as a podcast, use widely available tools and APIs to identify the individual speakers and the words being spoken - including highly technical language - to feed into our model.
You will leave with the knowledge and inspiration to give "cloning" your voice a try!
