It's there any copyright protections for a person's voice? If not, David Attenborough and Morgan Freeman will be lead voice actors in my next game project
Impressive. But also enabling the next gen of "Mom, I'm in Mexican jail. Quickly wire me $2,000 so I can get out." scams.

The NPR Planet Money podcast did one of their best episodes about this, called Frank Sinatra's Mug: http://www.npr.org/sections/money/2015/12/09/459116467/episo... There's a transcript here: http://www.npr.org/templates/transcript/transcript.php?story...
While all of these vec2speech type models are impressive, I get the feeling that most of the comments didn't listen to any of the samples. It's still distinctly robotic sounding, probably has quite a bit of garbage output that needs to be filtered manually (as many of these nets often have) and is a far cry from fooling a human.

I was wondering when CG Sir David Attenborough would get here and start narrating my day to day.
Actually, when the sad day comes and he passes away I'd be very comforted to hear his voice on new nature documentaries. I just can't watch them unless he's narrating.

Very impressive I velt -- though there were robotic artifacts here and there (well every several seconds), much of it was fairly natural and reasonably lo-fi quality convincing. There was a HN post a few weeks ago from Google of their most TTS algorithm which was the best I've heard I think, quite quite human (whose techniques were published and could be integrated into Lyrebird).
