🤯 Language barriers? Where we're going we won't have any language barriers

Dubbing v2 by @ElevenLabs blew my mind so much I had to stop editing @thursdai_pod and show you (100% not paid lol)

it's insane, it understands tonality, emotion, does voice transfer & even accent!?

I didn't have this in the short but both me and @nisten voices were dubbed, here's me and Nisten in Hebrew, and while for natural listeners this may sound not perfectly 100%, it's still damn impressive!

If he'd speak Hebrew, he's sound 100% like this!

I also am a native Russian speaker, and my wife said this doesn't sound like me, but honestly, could you even tell?

Notice how they translated the swear words, the natural pauses in my speaking cadence, the emotion and the intensity of when I speak softly and then loudly, this is beyond... anything I've experienced before.

Truly amazing. The lips are not synced, but that's... solved with other models, like in this example, I used the @synclabs via @fal and while expensive, it really does look like we're speaking the language!
