💯👏 @fhurtado is one dedicated journalist.
It was a Tuesday in January and @fhurtado was on his "4th day of waking up in the middle of the night for an hour the way our ancestors used to."

What makes a voice human? In this story for @sciam, I met my own AI voice, threw back to the 1939 World’s Fair, and revisited an 18th century “Speaking Machine” to explore the science and history of how people make machines talk.
Artificial intelligence is now shockingly good at sounding human. Can you tell the difference between a machine voice and a human one?
