ElevenLabs, a voice-cloning AI startup, has developed a Reader App that replicates the voices of deceased celebrities like Judy Garland, James Dean, Burt Reynolds, and Sir Laurence Olivier to narrate texts with emotion and understanding. The company collaborated with the estates of these stars, ensuring royalty provisions and ethical use. Despite concerns about deepfake misuse, ElevenLabs aims to provide a tailored listening experience and expand content accessibility through AI-generated voices. The Reader App, currently available in select regions for iOS with plans for Android, offers customizable pitch, speed, and tone, heralding a new era in AI-driven audiobook narration and emphasizing ethical considerations in voice-cloning technology.
