There are already audio models that understand things like [sighing], or [laughter] and synthesize the right sound. Check the examples from Bark. Ignore the overall quality and artefacting, elevenlabs has that basically perfected already, but being able to direct/prompt a voice model will probably be possible soon.

Murf AI

Lifelike voiceovers in minutes.
Pricing:
- Paid

It surprises me they're adopting it this early. Elevenlabs routinely makes mistakes, and all other AI voices are still (at least to me) significantly distinguishable from a human voice. For example, all of murf.ai samples, and the recent "improved" AI voice that's all over YouTube, I can still easily clock it as fake based on certain inflections and vocal artifacts. And I'm sure others can too.

My man you need to visit play.ht or murf.ai and see if you want to revise that statement. Look specifically at their "Ultra Realistic" products.

Amazon Polly

Named for a parrot, Amazon Polly is a text-to-speech (TTS) software that makes your text come to life in a natural, authentic way. The software has many lifelike voices, both male and female, and in a variety of languages.

Because the “AI software” is likely offered at an API and not everyone is skilled with programming to utilise it meaningfully. See https://aws.amazon.com/polly/.
