Alexa can mimic anyone’s voice as it will be able to mimic anyone’s voice as Amazon Inc. says that Alexa will be able to mimic anyone’s voice as Amazon wants “the customers to have a chance to make Alexa sound just like their grandmother… or anyone else.”
The online retailer is developing a system to let Alexa, the company’s voice assistant, mimic any voice after hearing less than a minute of audio, said Rohit Prasad, an Amazon’s senior vice president, at a conference that the company held in Las Vegas on Wednesday.
The goal is to “make the memories last” after “so many of us have lost someone we love” during the pandemic, Prasad said.
Amazon hopes the project will help Alexa become omnipresent in shoppers’ lives. But public has already been distracted.
At Alphabet Inc’s Google, an engineer made a highly opposed claim that a company chat bot had advanced to appreciation.
Another Amazon executive said on Tuesday that Alexa had 100 million customers globally, in line with figures the company has provided for device sales since January 2019.
Prasad said Amazon’s aim for Alexa is “generalizable intelligence,” or the ability to adapt to user environments and learn new concepts with little external input.
He said that goal is “not to be confused with the all-knowing, all-capable, uber artificial general intelligence,” or AGI, which Alphabet’s DeepMind unit and Elon Musk-co-founded OpenAI are seeking.
Amazon shared its vision for companionship with Alexa at the conference. In a video segment, it portrayed a child who asked, “Alexa, can grandma finish reading me the Wizard of Oz?”
