Are there any projects dealing with artificial speech

Hi there, I’m working as far only for ‘Common Voice’ (german section), and I’m therefore not so deeply involved in Deep Speech. (Sorry, if this is not the correct sub-forum; admins, please feel free to move it to the correct place, thanks)

I’m interested in the following: are there any projects dealing with ‘artificial speech output’? That is, the opposite of ‘understanding what was said/recorded/.wav.Files transcribing into written words (and therefore: understanding spoken commands’.

I’m interested, if any projects are out there, which deal with the way "putting written words (build together by humans or by AI-Converters, or by, let say a H-A-L computer from the sci-fi movie 2001 a space odyssey ) into a artificial voice output, normally titulated as a ‘computervoice’.

I have a more deeply question, but first, I need to know, to whom I have to deal with.

Regards
F

Hi F,
that is usually called TTS and you can find all about efforts for creating a German voice in this thread

And check the Mozilla Github TTS repo for more technical details.
