Google on Wednesday launched a voice synthesiser called "Cloud Text-to-Speech" which is powered by its Britain-based Artificial Intelligence (AI) subsidiary DeepMind. The service is now available for developers to add it in their own applications. A text-to-speech service is a form of speech synthesis that converts text into a spoken voice output. Google's text-to-speech powers the voices in service like Google Assistant, Search and Maps.
"'Cloud Text-to-Speech' lets developers choose from 32 different voices from 12 languages and variants," Dan Aharon, Product Manager, Cloud AI, said in a blog post. "Cloud Text-to-Speech" correctly pronounces complex text such as names, dates, times and addresses for authentic-sounding speech, the company claimed. It also allows developers to customise pitch, speaking rate and volume gain and supports a variety of audio formats, including MP3 and WAV.
