Yeah, it's fast and hard to keep up with! Eleven Labs also now has a more advanced version of voice cloning, which they call "Professional Voice Cloning," but there's some caveats -

"For best results, provide at least 30 minutes of speaker training data (3h is optimal). The training data you upload should be clean recordings of a single speaker, containing no background noise or music.

Please remember: the speaking style contained in the training data will be replicated in the output, so depending on what delivery you are looking for, the training data should correspond to that style (e.g. if you are looking to voice an audiobook with a clone of your voice, the audio you submit for training should be a recording of you reading a book).

For now, we only allow you to clone your own voice. You will be asked to go through a verification process before submitting your fine-tuning request."

Notice the bolded part at the end, which would be a dealbreaker for doing an even better BWR clone.

There are many wrong hands, cloning and AI can become quite dangerous.. my opinion folks... Carole

I hope the following is in good taste and acceptable. I cloned Mike's voice using the first three minutes of this video -



Now, I'm no master on the mix -

So I had to screencap the audio, then up the video to make the audio available. Anyone know any free and easy (no need to sign up for an account) to host mp3s and make them available for streaming?

Anyway, here it is!

That's outstanding bro!!! Well done!!! I thought you might-of cut & pasted with a digital audio program, but that's so cool you got an AI program to mimic it. Great work!!!

This is madness. Pretty unbelievable what technology can do these days. Good effort man.

This is so funny bro. I'm assuming this is from Mighty Mouse's days at Hamburg.

Yeah, we're heading into uncharted waters pretty quickly. There's already been plenty of bad actors on the voice cloning front -

That’s Not Your Scared Kid on the Phone. It’s a Scammer Using Voice Cloning

Chatbots and Voice-Cloning Fuel Rise in AI-Powered Scams

Silent danger: How voice cloning AI is robbing people of both money and privacy

And then there is the issue of consent, as well as if a given voice should pass into the public domain upon a person's death, or if the decedent's relatives should inherit that voice, treating it as intellectual property, falling under personality rights/name/image/likeness/ -- but with this being vocal likeness, not the usual visual likeness.

It sounds like California does afford some degree of protection upon someone's death, which is not surprising, given Cali's historical role in entertainment and IP protection.

Interesting thought: a human can mimic someone's voice, like Will Sasso does here with his Jesse Ventura imitation, and I'm not sure that has ever been considered actionable. (If it is actionable, then I would think any person could sue anyone who does a vocal impression/imitation, so Jesse Ventura could sue Will Sasso, and comedic impressionsists would be outta luck.)

So should there be a difference in IP protection when it comes to an AI clone and a traditional vocal impression?

Shifting to the visual, in this thread, and all over the internet, really, you can find a whole host of nonconsensual replications and reproductions (shoops) of people's images.

Anyway, I look forward to the continued developments, both in public opinion and law
