Dailily, I assess artificial intelligence; the unfathomable AI voice generator I've encountered hitherto has recently been unveiled.
Let's dive into Hume's Evi 3, the game-changer in AI voice generation!
Hold onto your hats, folks, because Hume's latest update is bringing a breath of fresh air to the world of AI-generated voices. Evi 3, their leading voice generator, promises to leave the robotic monotone of past models in the dust.
What sets Evi 3 apart? Personalization, baby! This bad boy allows you to design a voice from scratch, or simply let the AI suggest options, providing an unparalleled level of customization.
So, how 'bout we walk through this badass feature? You jump onto the Hume system and are presented with a few options—默认 voices, but who needs 'em? The real deal is the custom voice generator, and here's the lowdown on that sweet ride.
Designing Your Own AI voice
Once you've selected the custom voice generator, you'll kick off a conversation with an AI. This chit-chatty buddy is here to guide you through the process of designing your dream voice, whether you want a specific style or you're feeling adventurous.
I put the AI through its paces, trying out all sorts of voices, some simple, others more detailed. Imagine, if you will, a raspy, low-energy voice with a villainous edge—think Darth Vader or a fantasy film's bad guy ruling over some wicked kingdom. Pretty specific, huh? A few minutes later, I had myself a voice that fit this description to a T, even nailing the sarcasm and other vocal mannerisms.
Next up was a British game show host, slathered in old-fashioned accent, positivity, and energy. Surprisingly, the AI nailed the accent and the energy of a classic British game show host. I also tried more voices, like pirates and various American accents, and guess what? Hume delivered every time.
The voices weren't perfect throughout, sometimes revealing a slight robotic touch or a slip in the accent. But c'mon, it's an AI! It might always sound like an AI, but that's a small price to pay for the level of personalization on offer.
One thing that could use improvement is the ability to generate voices with text prompts. It would be fantastic to type in what we want and let the AI generate the voice for us, especially for those who have difficulty speaking or are non-verbal.
Also, it takes a bit more time to generate a voice with the conversational approach, which can be a tad inconvenient, but it's a minor concern overall.
How Does Evi 3 Stack Up?
Compared to other AI-based realms like text, video, and image generation, voice generation hasn't caught on quite as much. Models like Elevenlabs and the likes of Google and OpenAI have shown progress in the field, but Evi 3 takes the cake when it comes to customization options and emotional depth.
Hume claims that Evi 3 outperforms OpenAI's GPT-4 in various aspects like empathy, expressiveness, naturalness, interruption quality, response speed, and audio quality. It also excels in portraying a wide range of emotions and styles compared to other popular AI voice systems. This puts Hume in a strong position in the market, but with AI evolving as fast as the speed of light, they'll have to keep up the updates to stay on top.
