Do you think the animation industry will make a breakthrough in creating new voice recordings of dead voice actors and celebrity actors through machine learning (AI)?

Earlier we had speech synthesis technology where pre-defined voices are used to replace speeches. Now we use AI-engineered voice cloning technology — here we use AI to create a voice that sounds identical to a real person (Amitabh), mimicking everything from the way they pronounce syllables to their intonation pattern. Now we can make Amitabh sir dub any dialogue in any language we want with any emotion — that’s how he dubbed for Vettaiyan in regional languages
Mix tracks using AI-powered tools like Neutron and Cryo Mix
Song creation using AI to recreate late singer voices is almost similar

This is a popular cost-effective method — the filmmakers might have used advanced technology as they have the budget to go for it.

Use ChatGPT to write lyrics
AI-powered mastering systems allow endless tweaking (musicians generally offer a specific number of revisions). They return results within a minute (sound engineers might need up to a week). They are comparatively cheap and can sound better than humans. British singer Billie Eilish just used an Audio-Technica mic along with a Universal Audio Volt 2 interface to record her debut album, used Melodyne to pitch correct her voice, used Apple’s Logic for mixing, and released her album
Apart from recreating a singer’s or actor’s voice, dead or alive — we can also compose an entire song without a lyricist, singer, sound engineer, sound mixing assistant, instrumental player, or professional music composer
Use machine learning AI models to sing those lyrics in any singer’s voice - alive or dead

Create sounds using generative AI tools like Music FX
Firstly. Amitabh’s original voice, free from any background noise is recorded to create a dataset. The more data, an AI model can learn better from it. Then this dataset is uploaded to the RVC model - which each step followed to complete the cloning process. Now this trained AI voice of Amitabh’s is downloaded as a zip file and stored in Google Drive

LANDR has been doing this work already — it's a subscription service. It's a cloud-based system where you upload mixed tracks and receive mastered tracks where you make “fine-tuning” using a question-based interface. You can also upload a reference track that the system will analyze and try to match in style. Once you’re done with finalizing the track, you can simply download and post it online. It’s that simple
It's already happening in the Tamil film industry. Late singer M. Vasudevan sir’s voice has been recreated using AI for the song Manasilaayo - a viral hit on social media. Amitabh sir’s voice has been dubbed in regional languages using AI for the same film - and is widely appreciated.
Anyone who has access to these AI tools can compose a song, while voice cloning celebrities' original voices to sing and speak dialogue with any emotion in any language across the world — all these for a few dollar subscription fees
What is the most memorable thing that happened in your college days?
Now upload a film dialogue in a regional language, separate the background noise, select the AI voice of Amitabh, and click “convert” to recreate the dialogue in Amitabh sir’s voice in any language with any emotion. Combine this vocal track with BGM - now Amitabh sir’s voice is dubbed in other regional languages.
Among many voices cloning AI apps, popular ones are So-vits-SVC and RVC which can be run on Google Colabs.
iZotope's Ozone plugin is expensive — but you can click over into the full mastering chain and alter every parameter of every plugin that the AI used to achieve that sound. Inside the maximizer plugin, for instance, you can pick your preferred algorithm, adjust the "character" of the boosted sound, control "upward compression," add or remove "soft clipping" of waveform peaks, adjust "transient emphasis," and separately control the stereo independence of your transient and sustained sounds
