This is really cool. It's a text-to-speech and the gist seems to be that they synthesize it from only a little audio.

The results are clearly synthetic and need work. However what's cool is that there are a ton of characters (from popular shows and video games) and there are useful statistics like inferred emotion (which is also in the output).

Honestly it's a big problem how a lot of AIs are like "black boxes" where you really can't customize or see anything. Yeah we have DALL-E and GPT which can generate text images but the lack of customization or fine-tuning the image afterwards severely hinders what's possible with them. Ultimately what you want is something interactive, where you can control how much or little the AI generates, and give it really specific criterion.

But seriously: how did you get the domain `15.ai`?

Dall-E 2 has customization.

You can remove or add things etc.

And for GPT you can also specify more details.

Only a question of time until you can work with the ai on your art/thing.

There are ai models which keep track of context and others which generate a plan of actions.

AI is not a blackbox
