Google just launched new AI tools that let you create and customize realistic voices from scratch. You can direct these voices to sound exactly how you want, from their accent to their emotional tone. It’s perfect for making audiobooks, games, or podcasts that sound like real people talking. Plus, they added safety features to make sure these voices are used responsibly.
