I'm amused that right now as I post this, the top comment is "This is terrible and sounds like it was cut with tape" and the next one is "this is amazing and indistinguishable from real life".

I guess we have a ways to go with AI, but it's already there for some.



The first post is not very fair at all. I personally am in the amazing camp, this is a rough diamond, a prototype, from here it will be refined and optimised. The first poster is trying to compare it to two humans in dialog, which is unrealistic for something so new. It very much looks to me though, it will get there and get there shortly.


~95% of the sentences spoken by the RoganAI are nearly indistinguishable from Rogan's real life inflections and podcast persona.

The JobsAI is trained on his presenter speaking voice, so ~95% of his inflections sound noticeably unnatural in a conversational format.

So, I guess it depends on what you're focusing on, the imperfections or the achievements.
