Will the real Bin Laden stand up: On the left, an image from the 2001 "Bin Laden" video where he claimed responsibility for the 9/11 attacks. On the right, a verified authentic image of the real Bin Laden.
Software emulates human voices ... even the dead
AT&T Labs will start selling speech software that it says is so good at reproducing the sounds, inflections and intonations of a human voice that it can re-create voices and even bring the voices of long-dead celebrities back to life.
The software, which turns printed text into synthesized speech, makes it possible for a company to use recordings of a person's voice to utter new things that the person never said.
[Remember when the BBC questioned the authenticity of the December 2001 "Bin Laden" tape?]
