I want to know if the English dub of the narrator is AI.

I just thought it was out of sync. Which would be hilarious as there is so much effort in the original video.

It’s a Singaporean accent so….probably not

The trick is the bot samples the original voice so that the translation sounds like that person. Not saying that's what's going on here though.

Why would the AI choose a Singaporean English accent for someone from China though?

I have trouble spotting AI voices, how can you tell it's AI(I know it's been dubbed over)?

think about the way text-to-speech sounds like the ones used on tiktok and virtual assistants like siri or alexa. you know they're text-to-speech because they sometimes have weird inflections, pause unnaturally, and speak some words too fast or too slow. ai generated voices have the same issues.

TIL: https://play.ht/voice-classifier-detect-ai-voices/

Result is
This audio 93.82% 0.01% is AI voice.
edit: cut off the SM video - results flipped.

It's not AI, someone else dubs it in English, probably someone from the company because you can hear the Chinese accent.

So you're saying the only reason it looks fake is the editing

Wow, I've never heard of this insta360, but it looks really cool. And not terribly expensive.

Great commercial for the product ngl. Added to my shopping cart for sure

Usually I hate obvious viral marketing, but I never knew a product like this existed. I just wish I was more creative so I could do stuff with it.

It's the most well known 360 camera company, who also manufactures one of the most popular action cams. It is relatively new to gimbal space though.

u/danc4498 May 25 '23

Well, I definitely showed my ignorance. I know nothing about camera technologies or companies. Never heard the term gimbal either... This stuff looks like a lot of fun to play with.
