Leva apenas 3,7 segundos de áudio para clonar uma voz. Esta façanha impressionante, e preocupante, foi anunciada pela chinesa Baidu, uma das maiores empresas de tecnologia do mundo. Um ano atrás, a ferramenta de clonagem de voz da empresa chamada Deep Voice exigia 30 minutos de áudio para fazer o mesmo. Isso mostra o quão rápido a tecnologia para criar vozes artificiais está se acelerando. Em pouco tempo, os recursos de geração de voz de Inteligência Artificial se expandiram e se tornaram mais realistas, o que torna fácil o uso indevido da tecnologia. Como todos os algoritmos de inteligência artificial, quanto mais dados as ferramentas de clonagem como Deep Voice receberem para treinar, mais realistas vão ser os resultados. Recentemente, o Google revelou o Tacotron 2, um sistema de conversão de texto em fala, e o método de geração de voz WaveNet. O WaveNet analisa uma representação visual de áudio, chamada espectrograma. Esse sistema gera o áudio. Ele é usado para gerar a voz para o Google Assistente. Esta tecnologia é tão realista que é quase impossível dizer o que é gerado por IA e qual voz é gerada por humanos. O algoritmo aprendeu como pronunciar palavras e nomes desafiadores que seriam um sinal revelador de uma máquina, bem como enunciar palavras com mais naturalidade. Essa tecnologia avançada abre as portas para empresas fornecerem novos serviços e produtos. A Lyrebird, por exemplo, usa inteligência artificial para criar vozes para chatbots, audiolivros, videogames, leitores de texto e muito mais. Eles reconhecem em seu site que “com uma grande inovação vem uma grande responsabilidade”, ressaltando a importância dos pioneiros dessa tecnologia tomarem muito cuidado para evitar o uso indevido da tecnologia. Semelhante a outras novas tecnologias, a voz artificial pode ter muitos benefícios, mas também pode ser usada para enganar indivíduos. À medida que os algoritmos de IA ficam melhores e fica difícil discernir o que é real e o que é artificial, haverá mais oportunidades de usá-los para fabricar a verdade. De acordo com pesquisas, nossos cérebros não registram diferenças significativas entre vozes reais e artificiais. Na verdade, é mais difícil para nosso cérebro distinguir vozes falsas do que detectar imagens falsas. Agora que esses sistemas de inteligência artificial requerem apenas uma pequena quantidade de áudio para criar uma voz artificial que imite o estilo de fala e o tom de um indivíduo, a oportunidade de abuso aumenta. Até agora, os pesquisadores não foram capazes de identificar uma distinção neural de como um cérebro pode distinguir entre o real e o falso. Imagine como vozes artificiais poderiam ser usadas em uma entrevista, notícias ou conferência de imprensa para fazer os ouvintes acreditarem que estão ouvindo uma figura de autoridade no governo ou um CEO de uma empresa. Aumentar a conhecimento sobre essa tecnologia e como ela funciona é o primeiro passo para evitar que os ouvintes acreditem em vozes artificiais quando elas são usadas para nos enganar. O principal receio é que as pessoas possam ser enganadas se agirem com base em algo falso porque parece que vem de alguém real. Algumas pessoas estão tentando encontrar uma solução técnica para nos proteger. No entanto, uma solução técnica não será 100% infalível. Nossa capacidade de avaliar criticamente uma situação, avaliar a fonte de informação e verificar sua validade se tornará cada vez mais importante.
Deepfake voice technology based on voice cloning, or quasi-perfect reproductions of a person’s voice, can be used both for the good and for the bad. It can be put in the service of voice synthesis that can give a voice back to people who would otherwise lose it due to acute or chronic conditions such as ALS, apraxia, traumatic brain injury, stroke, etc.It is already being used in the film and TV industry, gaming, call centers, and it is also potentially convenient for encryption and therapy. However, there is no denying that it can pose a significant threat to democratic processes, particularly to those related to the value of privacy. If used inappropriately, deep-fake voice technology can perpetuate deceit and harassment.Precisely because we are fully aware of this, we at Respeecher place a great deal of emphasis on the use of voice technology in ways that minimize the risk of fooling people into thinking someone said something they didn't.We are committed to ensuring that our groundbreaking technology is only used for ethical projects, and does not fall into the wrong hands. We do not use the voice of a private person or an actor without permission, and we always ask for voice owners’ written consent. However, we do allow non-deceptive use of the voices of historical figures and politicians, such as Richard Nixon or Barack Obama, but only for projects that meet ethical standards.What about use cases for businesses? Numbers show that there is a huge opportunity for economic organizations to leverage voice to acquire and retain new business. According to an AppDynamics report from 2018, half the web searches were forecasted to be voice-driven by 2020.61% of the surveyed IT decision-makers take this even further, expecting that voice commands would completely replace manually typed commands for finding information on the Internet. And the young generation leads the way - 84% of millennials already use voice assistants to help them keep track of their daily schedule and responsibilities.The Good.Giving the ability to speak naturally back to people who suffer from a wide range of medical conditionsThe ability to communicate, sharing thoughts and feelings by uttering words is extremely important, in fact, it is among those things that make us, humans, special. But there is more to what groundbreaking voice conversion technology can do for vocally impaired people.Consider the expansion of home automation technologies with vocal control. Voice cloning could make people who can’t speak naturally more independent, better able to make use of the devices that can be vocally commanded.Voice assistantsAccording to Ovum's Digital Assistant and Voice AI–Capable Device Forecast: 2016–21, by 2021 voice assistants will outnumber the human beings that live on Earth. Let’s take Google Assistant as an example. Its voice is generated by the text-to-speech system Tacotron 2, based on two deep neural networks.The first transforms the text into a visual representation (i.e., the spectrogram) of audio frequencies over time, and then a WaveNet system analyses the spectrogram and creates audio elements. The outcome is speech that is nearly indistinguishable from human speech, even when it comes to the pronunciation of challenging words.Interactive content for online learning coursesVoice cloning with artificial intelligence makes it unnecessary to record notes for every new session, or to record again in order to correct potential mistakes. This leads to the reduction of both financial and time costs of professionally recorded lectures, and hence it fosters the proliferation of online courses. And this is no small thing, particularly during the tough times that we are traversing due to COVID-19 restrictions.The BadBlackmailFake, yet extremely realistic, videos with explicit sexual or violent scenes may be created by joint usage of deepfake voice technology and deepfake video.Spam emailsIf you’ve received an email asking you to “contact bank X via the below email to guide you further on the wire transfer procedure”, it’s quite likely that you regard it as spam and do nothing about it. However, a subsequent phone call from somebody who sounds exactly like a trusted contact, advising you to respond to the email, might change your mind and make you do something you will have wished you hadn’t.Serving unlawful competitionSomeone may pretend to be the CEO of company X, and from this position present sham data during fake earnings calls, fooling stakeholders and investors into believing that stock prices are different from what they really are. The same illicit technique can be used to sabotage industry rivals.We are painfully aware that synthetic media technology can potentially be used in harmful ways. This is one of the reasons why our tech is not accessible to the public. We restrict usage of our voice conversion systems to non-deceptive content creation applications, by limiting who we work with and what we allow them to do with our technology.We hope that being early to market, we can actually help educate the public about what is technically possible and make people less likely to fall for deceptive synthetic speech. We also think that an important role in limiting this harm can be played by gatekeepers such as Youtube and Facebook, and we are ready to work with such platforms to detect and prominently label synthetic speech.The FutureB2B use casesGiven the findings of the above-cited AppDynamics report, the use of voice conversion technology by companies should be framed not in terms of if, but of when. 69% of the IT decision-makers work for organizations that already invest in, or plan to invest in voice technology during the next 3 years.Whether you’re looking at voice replication, therapy for speech problems, dubbing and ADR, encryption, gaming, etc., all of these are likely to benefit from leveraging voice cloning. The envisaged development of a real-time system (currently an ongoing process) within gaming, for instance, will allow players to use different voices in in-game chats. Things are evolving fast when it comes to deepfake voice technology.Voice cloning for call centersRespeecher is now working on breakthrough technologies that will make overseas operators able to sound like locals. At long last, we are getting closer to the solution for getting operators to sound more like the people they are speaking with over the phone. Along the same lines, our robotic operators will soon sound more human once we get the voice makeover “up and running”.ConclusionDeepfake voice technology does indeed pose security risks, but acknowledging them and trying to minimize them are the first steps towards focusing mainly on the good. Cloned voices that sound indistinguishable from the original speakers are a match made in heaven for filmmakers, game developers, other media content creators, and soon, also for call centers.Since digitally replicated voices can already capture nuances and emotions, the scope of application areas is enlarging, as it may be obvious for all of you who have recently tried to talk to (yes, the phrase is correct!) virtual assistants such as Samsung's Bixby, Apple's Siri or Amazon's Alexa.Counseling and companionship are the new functions that are expected to emerge from generating voices that express emotions. The creative process will be streamlined by the newly acquired possibility to change content without the need to re-record original voices.This article does not necessarily reflect the opinions of the editors or management of EconoTimes.Source: econotimes.com.

Today on the podcast, we speak with Ian Buck and Kari Briski of NVIDIA about new updates and achievements in deep learning. Ian begins by telling hosts Jon and Mark about his first project at NVIDIA, CUDA, and how it has helped expand and pave the way for future projects in super computing, AI, and gaming. CUDA is used extensively in computer vision, speech and audio applications, and machine comprehension, Kari elaborates. NVIDIA recently announced their new Tensor Cores, which maximize their GPUs and make it easier for users to achieve peak performance. Working with the Tensor Cores, TensorFlow AMP is an acceleration into the TensorFlow Framework. It automatically makes the right choices for neural networks and maximizes performance, while still maintaining accuracy, with only a two line change in Tensor Flow script. Just last year, NVIDIA announced their T4 GPU with Google Cloud Platform. This product is designed for inferences, the other side of AI. Because AI is becoming so advanced, complicated, and fast, the GPUs on the inference side have to be able to handle the workload and produce inferences just as quickly. T4 and Google Cloud accomplish this together. Along with T4, NVIDIA has introduced TensorRT, a software framework for AI inference that’s integrated into TensorFlow. Ian Buck Ian Buck is general manager and vice president of Accelerated Computing at NVIDIA. He is responsible for the company’s worldwide datacenter business, including server GPUs and the enabling NVIDIA computing software for AI and HPC used by millions of developers, researchers and scientists. Buck joined NVIDIA in 2004 after completing his PhD in computer science from Stanford University, where he was development lead for Brook, the forerunner to generalized computing on GPUs. He is also the creator of CUDA, which has become the world’s leading platform for accelerated parallel computing. Buck has testified before the U.S. Congress on artificial intelligence and has advised the White House on the topic. Buck also received a BSE degree in computer science from Princeton University. Kari Briski Kari Briski is a Senior Director of Accelerated Computing Software Product Management at NVIDIA. Her talents and interests include Deep Learning, Accelerated Computing, Design Thinking, and supporting women in technology. Kari is also a huge Steelers fan.

Soy Vilma Núñez y puedo ayudarte - Noticia de la semana: https://searchengineland.com/new-search-quality-raters-guidelines-google-assistant-voice-search-evaluations-289114 La nueva calidad de búsqueda califica las pautas para el Asistente de Google y las evaluaciones de búsqueda por voz Google tiene evaluadores de calidad específicamente para resultados de búsqueda relacionados con la búsqueda por voz. Estos evaluadores buscan información, satisfacción, duración, formulación y elocución. Google ha publicado en el blog de Google Research las directrices de calificadores de calidad de búsqueda , directrices de los contratistas para evaluar los resultados de búsqueda de Google, específicamente para el Asistente de Google y los resultados de búsqueda por voz. Es similar a las pautas de calidad de búsqueda web, pero cambia en cuanto a que no hay una pantalla que observar al evaluar dichos resultados; en su lugar, está evaluando las respuestas de voz del Asistente de Google. Google explicó: "El Asistente de Google necesita sus propias pautas, ya que muchas de sus interacciones utilizan lo que se llama 'tecnología sin ojos' cuando no hay pantalla como parte de la experiencia". Google ha diseñado algoritmos y aprendizaje automático para intente hacer que las respuestas de voz y las "respuestas sean gramaticales, fluidas y concisas". Google dijo que le piden a los evaluadores que se aseguren de que las respuestas sean satisfactorias en varias dimensiones: Satisfacción con la información: el contenido de la respuesta debe cumplir con las necesidades de información del usuario. Longitud: cuando una respuesta mostrada es demasiado larga, los usuarios pueden escanearla visualmente y localizar la información relevante. Para las respuestas de voz, eso no es posible. Es mucho más importante garantizar que proporcionamos una cantidad útil de información, con suerte no demasiado o muy poco. Algunos de nuestros trabajos previos se usan actualmente para identificar los fragmentos de respuestas más relevantes. Formulación: es mucho más fácil entender una respuesta escrita mal formulada que una respuesta no gramatical, por lo que se debe tener más cuidado para garantizar la corrección gramatical. Elocución: las respuestas verbales deben tener una pronunciación adecuada y prosodia. Las mejoras en la generación de texto a voz, como WaveNet y Tacotron 2 , están reduciendo rápidamente la brecha con el rendimiento humano.

Paweł Cyrta zajmuje się uczeniem maszynowym już kawał czasu. Ale ciekawostka jest taka, że zajmuje się głównie dźwiękiem i tematami powiązanymi, takimi jak synteza mowy lub brand sound design. Między innymi, rozmawialiśmy o sieci neuronowej WaveNet, co ciekawe w międzyczasie wyszła nowa wersja sieci, która jest jeszcze bardziej sprawna. Jak szybko ten świat rozwija się. Zapraszam do wysłuchania.http://biznesmysli.pl/20

In this episode of Device Squad, the podcast for the Mobile Enterprise from Propelics, Steve gets futuristic with MERL Senior Principal Research Scientist, John Hershey. The conversation centers around the current state of Neural Networks and artificial intelligence as John brings us the news from the recent NIPS (Neural Information Processing) conference in Barcelona. We discuss voice recognition and replication strategies and what role they'll play in our everyday lives—along with John's current project, deep learning for signal separation, speech recognition, language processing, and multi-modal semantic representation learning. In other words, John has solved the problem of isolating a single voice in a crowd, a process known as Deep Clustering. Specifically, we discuss: the Universe Project - a software platform for measuring and training an AI's general intelligence across the world's supply of games, websites and other applications. WaveNet - a deep generative model of raw audio waveforms - able to generate speech which mimics human voice and sounds more natural than the best text-to-speech systems. Google's DeepDreams - DeepDream is a computer vision program created by Google which uses a convolutional neural network to find and enhance patterns in images via algorithmic pareidolia, thus creating a dreamlike hallucinogenic appearance in the deliberately over-processed images. MERL Deep Clustering - Training deep discriminative embeddings to solve the cocktail party problem.The human auditory system gives us the extraordinary ability to converse in the midst of a noisy throng of party goers. Solving this so-called cocktail party problem has proven extremely challenging for computers, and separating and recognizing speech in such conditions has been the holy grail of speech processing for more than 50 years. Deep clustering is a recently introduced deep learning architecture that uses discriminatively trained embeddings as the basis for clustering, producing unprecedented speaker-independent single-channel separation performance on two-speaker and three-speaker mixtures. John also predicts when our robot overlords will finally take over, and whether or not the revolution will take the form of an army of seemingly benevolent toys. Also, how long it will be before Alexa (and other) voice-controlled devices begin targeting content based on our emotional states. Lastly, our two heroes engage in an exciting game of BLIP. Tune in and find out what this 1970's TOMY game has to do with with artificial intelligence and analog processing! It's a long episode but a great one so be sure to tune in! Oh, and by the way, Mind Flex is a scam.
