In an increasingly digital world, voice plays a crucial role<\/strong> not only in communication but also in the construction and negotiation of social identities.

At LLYC, we have developed the study<\/strong> “Free the Voices”: Voice, Diversity, and Technology in the Age of AI”<\/strong> to delve into key points regarding voice as a crucial element in the construction and negotiation of social identities, vocal diversity<\/strong> as a source of discrimination, and technology as a tool that can either perpetuate this discrimination or revolutionize the way we interact with the digital world and see ourselves represented in it.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our analysis has led to the creation of the groundbreaking project<\/strong>, ‘<\/a><\/span>Free the Voices<\/b><\/a>‘, the world’s first diverse synthetic voice<\/strong> bank. In partnership with Monoceros Labs and their innovative product Fonos, this initiative aims to not only raise awareness about voice-based biases but also to actively reduce them by promoting a greater understanding and appreciation of vocal diversity.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
