| Assessment | Randy says AI voice generation is “pretty good” and “very good,” but he also says it is “not perfect” and “flawed.” |
Artificial intelligence, in this Randypedia entry, is the voice-generation and narration technology Randy discussed in a Short. He said people who make YouTube videos use AI voices, described them as sounding like real people, and argued that the technology can still be identified when it mispronounces words.
Randy's view
Randy’s attitude toward AI voice generation is mixed. He praises it as “pretty good” and “very good,” but says it is “not perfect” and “flawed” because it can mispronounce words.
How he identifies it
He says a mispronounced word can reveal that a narration track is AI rather than a real person talking. In the transcript, he points to a video about Carl O' Conor as his example of that mistake.
