Google Develops Voice Transfer AI for Restoring Voices

A team at Google Research developed a zero-shot voice transfer (VT) model that can be used to customize a text-to-speech (TTS) with a specific person's voice. This allows speakers who have lost their voice, for example from Parkinson's disease or ALS, to use a TTS device to replicate their original voice. The model also works across languages.
