A very insightful article and video from The Verge on voice synthesis and speak text-to-speech technology.

Thanks posting a link to this Camille, interesting read on synthesizing humans. Parts of it reminds me about when manual labour started getting replaced with mechanics and all the discussion that arose at that point in time. As it is coming to an accelerating quality. Moving into ‘software’ makes for a just as interesting conversation.
