Spotify Testing AI Podcast Translations that Match Hosts' Voices
-
Spotify is testing AI-powered podcast language translation that mimics the podcaster's own voice.
-
The pilot includes shows like Armchair Expert, The Diary of a CEO, and The Ringer podcasts, with translations in Spanish, French and German.
-
The AI tool uses OpenAI's new voice generation technology to match the speaker's vocal style.
-
Translated episodes will roll out starting Sept. 25, currently in Spanish with more languages coming.
-
Spotify believes this can help listeners worldwide discover new podcasts in a more authentic way.
