Spotify plans to use artificial intelligence to translate podcast creators’ voices into different languages, allowing the audio to be played in the original podcaster’s voice. Find out more about this new feature being tested on the streaming platform in the “For the Record” news section of Spotify.
How does Spotify’s IA translation of podcasts function?
Spotify’s latest feature was created using recent advancements in AI, like the voice generation technology introduced by OpenAI, the developer of ChatGPT. This enabled the use of the podcast speaker’s voice in a different language.
Voice dubbing created by AI is said to offer a more genuine and natural listening experience compared to traditional dubbing, according to the streaming platform. Tests were carried out with various personalities, and episodes will soon be available in Spanish.
- Lex Fridman’s podcast episode featuring an interview with Yuval Noah Harari.
- Kristen Bell, a specialist in armchairs, returns by the grace of God.
- CEO Steven Bartlett’s diary entry featuring an interview with Dr. Mindy Pelz.
