Just how much does AI voiceover suck?
Videos that I voice get a lot of shit in comments about my speaking style, which tends to over pronounce the final syllable of every sentence, something I am working on… but you know what? At least it’s humannnn.....
AI voices might not do that, but I’ll tell you… they’ve got no idea how to convey meaning through inflection, and they are known to change the entire meaning of sentences by what word gets the emphasis. They often even change phrase in a manner that effectively changes the punctuation, and that leads to the latest abomination I just scrolled to:
Think about this script, and what it’s going to mean to an AI who has no idea what this means other than a line on a page.
"William Shakespeare wrote many classic plays, like Hamlet and Romeo and Juliet"
It could conclude there's this one play: “Hamlet and Romeo and Juliet” about some love triangle or a ménage à trois. But no, this was even worse. With this AI’s phrasing, and the way it chose to put the punctuation in, it literally asserted that Shakespeare wrote this one play named “Hamlet and Romeo”… oh, and by the way, he also wrote this other play named “Juliet”.
Ok, rant over. Hire a real voice actor to narrate for your faceless channel!
