Innovative futuristic technology continues to burst from OpenAI research labs. Voice Engine, just announced, generates natural speech that resembles the original speaker in a fifteen second audio capture. The tool can recreate voices in english, Spanish, French or Chinese.

Voice Engine can help advance a number of use cases. One example is providing reading assistance to non-readers and children through natural sounding voices to generate pre-scripted voice over content automatically. This allows for more content development and more rapid deployment. Although not officially released Voice Engine has serious risks. Some of the risks most often highlighted are to families and small businesses that are targeted with fraudulent extortion scams. False election and marketing campaigns is a boon to bad actors with access to Voice Engine technology. In addition, creative professionals, such as voice artists, could potentially have their voices used in ways that could jeopardize an artist's reputation and ability to earn an income.
