Microsoft has developed a language system that can mimic a person ’ s voice from a sample of just three seconds.
Microsoft has developed an intelligent language system, an AI-powered program that can mimic someone ’ s voice and mimic their voice from a three-second audio sample.
The new system, called VALL-E, converts written texts into audio clips, and speech can match both the speaker ’ s tone of voice and the way of talking — even room acoustics, where it can be used for custom or sophisticated text-to-speech applications.
Not only does the system create audio clips by writing random texts, but it can also take into account the reading style and tone of voice, to show the character of the original voice in the fake audio clips.
The system is still under development and research, but the project offers a high level of accuracy in simulating the factors and sound effects surrounding the speaker in the original clip of only 3 seconds, so that they are highlighted in the manufactured clips closer to the truth.
Samples of audio clips presented by "Microsoft" to reveal the capabilities of its new system, a precise level of the program in creating audio clips as recorded during a phone call, by quoting the style of sound and its level and intensity, from the original clip recorded to the user during his speech in fact.
And proved "Microsoft" through the audio clips published on the page of the new system on "JetHub" that the system can create audio clips in different ways, using the voice of one person.

The technology uses AI to detect synthetic voices and prevent voice cloning.

Content: Pindrop, Veridas raise biometric defenses against voice fraud

FTC Challenge winners and new software announced

Pindrop has won the Voice Cloning Challenge run by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC), along with three smaller organizations.

The challenge results were announced just as investors in India were viewing recommendations on stock purchases that appeared to be from National Stock Exchange (NSE) CEO and MD Ashishkumar Chauhan. The fraudulent video, shared on social media, faked both the face and voice of Chauhan and the NSE logo. The NSE has issued a public caution about the deepfake reminding investors of the sources for legitimate information.

The submissions to the FTC challenge from smaller organizations, AI Detect, DeFake and OriginStory, will split $35,000 in prize money. AI Detect was submitted by OmniSpeech, OriginStory by a startup of the same name, and DeFake was submitted by Washington University (St. Louis) Department of Computer Science and Engineering Assistant Professor Dr. Ning Zhang.

Pindrop and AI Detect both utilize AI algorithms to detect characteristics that reveal a given voice sample is synthetic. Pindrop’s submission makes use of the biometric liveness detection technology the company provides to commercial customers, while AI Detect’s also includes a framework for the responsibilities of public and private sector organizations. Pindrop says its technology works in real-time, with speech samples recorded over a phone (8 kHz) or digital channel (16 kHz).

Pindrop’s technology was also judged the only effective one among several deepfake detection tools tested recently by NPR.

DeFake proposed a technique of watermarking voice samples that could be used in the generation of voice clones to prevent accurate cloning, without being detectable by humans in the source sample. OriginStory collects signals from sensors commonly contained in electronic devices to measure speech acoustics and “co-occuring biosignals in the throat and mouth” to authenticate that genuineness of the sample and create a watermark that attests that it is real.

The challenge was originally unveiled last year with $25,000 in prize money available to smaller organizations.

The FTC has proposed new rules on impersonation fraud and stated the jurisdiction of the Telemarketing Sales Rule over AI fraud calls, as additional measures to combat voice deepfakes.

“When it comes to AI-driven fraud, the FTC will continue using every tool to deter harmful practices, shut down bad actors, and spur innovative proposals to help protect consumers,” says Samuel Levine, director of the FTC’s Bureau of Consumer Protection.

Veridas launches voice fraud detection software

A new technology has been launched by Veridas to combat voice fraud, whether in the form of pre-recorded audio, manipulated or artificially generated speech, or deepfakes.

Voice Shield software can analyze millions of calls in just milliseconds, according to the announcement, regardless of language or text spoken, and make judgements from 3 seconds of audio data, without a reference sample. Without a need for prior registration, the software also helps optimize conversion rates, the company says.

Veridas’ technology was developed based on its experience in securing 5 million processes globally with voice biometrics, and the company cites a ten-fold increase in deepfakes detected from 2022 to 2023.

“Our journey with this technology is not new. We’ve been crafting and refining these solutions for years as a vital part of our core offerings,” states Eduardo Azanza, CEO of Veridas. “Now, in the face of the fraud avalanche coming from deepfakes, we believe it is the perfect timing for us to launch Voice Shield as a standalone product as well to protect both companies and end-users from fraud.”

Content: Language No Barrier: New AI tool can clone voice and make it say anything in multiple languages

Imagine former US President Donald Trump speaking in flawless Hindi. A new AI voice cloning tool by ElevenLabs can clone voices and make them say anything in a bunch of different languages. All it needs is a three-second sample clip and a bit of text as the prompt.

Imagine former US President Donald Trump speaking in flawless Hindi. A new AI voice cloning tool by ElevenLabs can clone voices and make them say anything in a bunch of different languages. All it needs is a three-second sample clip and a bit of text as the prompt.

As advanced as AI-based voice cloning has been, there were a few limitations to it. For example, voice generators were mainly bound by the language of the source they were trained in or rather the language of the prompt that was given to them. Now, ElevenLabs, an American AI software developing company has come up with a tool that does away with that limitation.

ElevenLabs’ new AI tool can clone the voice of a person and make it say anything in a bunch of different languages. All it needs is a clear voice sample of about 3 seconds, although it also suggests that the longer the sample, the better will be the results. The new tool even manages to maintain the speaker’s original tone of voice.

Limitless possibilities
The creators expect that this would ‘extend the possibilities’ in a variety of industries such as publishing, gaming creation, and media. “Introducing Eleven Multilingual v1: Our New Speech Synthesis Model! We’re thrilled to launch our new model supporting seven new languages: French, German, Hindi, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, and Spanish.”

“This advancement expands the horizons for creators, game developers, and publishers, and it paves the way for using generative media to create more localized, accessible, and imaginative content,” the company said.

Following the announcement, Twitter was flooded with comments, with users testing the software on various famous faces.

To demonstrate just how capable the new voice cloning AI tool is, Eluna AI, a platform for AI-content creators experimented with a sample clip of former US President Donald Trump.

In their demo, Eluna AI showcased a small clip of Donald Trump, speaking in his native tongue, English, followed by French, Spanish, German, Hindi and Italian, almost perfectly. The generated samples even gets the accent right, almost if he was a native speaker of the new target language.

Another user changed David Attenborough’s voice to German while the BBC broadcaster discussed the prospects of AI. “With this tool, anyone can do it,” stated the Twitter user. “It’s also worth noting that fraudsters will undoubtedly exploit this one.”

ElevenLabs says that its model was designed to understand the emotion and reasoning underlying words in order to produce natural-sounding and persuasive audio. ElevenLabs has said that some numerals and symbols are currently spoken wrongly, but that it is striving to rectify this.

Who is this new tool meant to help?
The US-based company believes its technology will be valuable in a variety of areas, including education and journalism.

Game developers and publishers can build engaging, localised experiences for worldwide audiences, breaking through language barriers and connecting with players and listeners to maximise engagement and efficiency while maintaining quality and accuracy.

“Educational institutions now have the ability to develop audio content for varied users in their target languages, enhancing language comprehension and even pronunciation abilities, as well as responding to different teaching methods and learning demands,” says the report.

Because of the model’s capacity to produce unique character-like voices, audiobook and content developers may also find it beneficial.

The conundrum of AI voice genertors
Despite its benefits, ElevenLabs’ launch comes amid widespread concern about the wave of new voice cloning technology. An unidentified TikTok user went popular last month after sharing an AI-generated Drake song starring The Weeknd.

It sparked concerns about the grey area of AI-created music and whether it constitutes a copyright violation. Nonetheless, ElevenLabs claims to be ‘fully committed’ to respecting creators’ rights in the midst of technological advancements.

“At Eleven, we think that we should seek to make the best use of emerging technology, but not at any expense,” it stated.

“As we create them, we make every effort to put suitable controls in place that reduce the possibility of detrimental abuse. With this in mind, we are entirely committed to both protecting intellectual property rights and taking action against infringement.”

Japan will launch an empirical study on improving students' oral English with AI
Friday, August 18, 2023, 07: 43
KATHAN / Astana, Aug. 18 (Xinhua) -- In order to improve the "conversational English" skills that Japanese people think they are not good at, the first line of schools will begin to implement "chat-based artificial intelligence (AI)" initiatives.
It is difficult for teachers to teach at the level of dozens of students, but if they use AI, they can instantly grasp the strength and topic of each person and tailor their teaching.
The Ministry of Education, Culture, Science and Technology will conduct empirical research in schools in the near future to explore learning methods using new technologies.
Equmenopolis, a Tokyo-based venture, has developed a chat-based AI in which users talk to their peers and measure their skill levels.
In addition to the evaluation based on the CEFR, the international standard for language proficiency, six recommendations on pronunciation, grammatical accuracy, and the ability to communicate flexibly are also displayed.
AI is characterized by the ability to conduct conversations based on the user ’ s English level.
Instant analysis of the ability in the conversation, for beginners will ask about favorite food, hobbies and other topics around; for high-level learners, will propose abstract topics such as imagining Japan in ten years.
Analyze not only conversation content, but also facial expressions and eye movements.
The Ministry of Liberal Arts plans to start empirical research at Narita International High School in Chiba Prefecture roughly from September.
The survey is not aimed at the beginners of this AI, in the face of whether high school students can also run correctly and can stimulate the enthusiasm of students.
- In the face of AI, even if you are wrong, you will not be embarrassed.
Able to reduce fear and repeat conversations.
In the future, we will promote the development of AI for junior high school students. - Yoichi Matsuyama, Representative Director of Equmenopolis.
The ministry will also conduct empirical research using additional AI in schools in Kagawa Prefecture and Osaka prefecture, with officials saying they “want to verify the results and explore utilization. ”

  • Evaluating creativity of verbal responses or texts is a challenging task due to psychometric issues associated with subjective ratings and the peculiarities of textual data. We explore an approach to objectively assess the creativity of responses in a sentence generation task to 1) better understand what language-related aspects are valued by human raters and 2) further advance the developments toward automating creativity evaluations. Over the course of two prior studies, participants generated 989 four-word sentences based on a four-letter prompt with the instruction to be creative. We developed an algorithm that scores each sentence on eight different metrics including 1) general word infrequency, 2) word combination infrequency, 3) context-specific word uniqueness, 4) syntax uniqueness, 5) rhyme, 6) phonetic similarity, and similarity of 7) sequence spelling and 8) semantic meaning to the cue.

We found six metrics to be significantly correlated with the human ratings, explaining a total of 16% of their variance. We conclude that the creative impression of sentences is partly driven by different aspects of novelty in word choice and syntax, as well as rhythm and sound, which are amenable to objective assessment.

VALL-E 2 can synthesize high-quality speech with few seconds of recording, suitable for educational training and language learning.

Title:

Content: What we know about Vall-E 2
According to these claims, Microsoft has developed a new artificial intelligence speech generator that is so adept that it can do more harm than good.
VALL-E 2 voices the text with the voice of a particular person, for which he needs only a few seconds of audio recording of the speech of this person.
Midjourney artificial intelligence has its own version of who is the president of the United States, and it ’ s not Biden
Microsoft researchers said that VALL-E 2 "has reached human parity."
It is capable of generating "accurate, natural speech by the voice of the original announcer, which can be compared to a human voice."
In other words, the new AI voice generator is convincing enough to be mistaken for a living person.
This opens up potentially dangerous opportunities for unscrupulous people.
VALL-E 2 is the latest achievement in speech models of neural codecs and marks an important milestone in text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis.
[...] VALL-E 2 consistently synthesizes high-quality speech, even for sentences that traditionally cause difficulties due to their complexity or repetitive phrases,
The developers write.
We ’ ve already seen examples of neural networks that are able to clone voices based on a multi-second recording, but Microsoft says its technology is superior to anything that has been on the market so far.
"Our experiments conducted on the LibriSpeech and VCTK datasets have shown that the VALL-E 2 is superior to previous TTS-systems [...] in reliability, naturalness and similarity to the speakers.
This is the first of its kind system that has reached parity with a person on these indicators, ” the article says.
The quality of the VALL-E 2 results depends on the length and quality of the speech prompts, as well as environmental factors such as background noise.

What happens next with the technology
Despite its capabilities, Microsoft will not release VALL-E 2 to the public due to potential abuse risks.
Recently, we have seen a wave of fraud – both at the level of ordinary users, who are deceived by fraudsters, forging the voice of their relatives or friends, and at the level of state leaders who “call ” their voters, and celebrities who allegedly advertise cryptocurrencies and various fraudulent schemes in advertising.
VALL-E 2 is a research project.
We do not plan to include VALL-E 2 in the product or expand access to it for the public.
This may carry potential risks of abuse of the model, such as faking voice identification or impersonating a particular speaker,
The creators of the technology write.
But they suggest that artificial intelligence technology may find practical applications in the future.
VALL-E 2 can synthesize a language that retains the identity of the speaker, and can be used for educational training, entertainment, journalism, author content, accessibility features, interactive voice response systems, translation, chatbots, and more.
But to do this, you need to add a special protective protocol that will ensure that the speaker approves the use of his voice.

Use the English learning platform app to master language learning 7 principles to improve English proficiency
【 Text / Zhongxin Company 】
In the process of learning English, parents often think: how to effectively improve the English ability, to prevent the child from losing interest in learning or stagnating progress?
Using the right methods, various online resources and language learning to help children learn English will not only make the learning process more interesting, but also deepen the impression of English, so that the English language into long-term memory.
The following will introduce the seven principles of language learning, English learning APP, English learning platform, parents can refer to these methods to enable children to learn English in a more efficient way.
The Seven Principles of Language Learning
In his TED Talk on “How to master any foreign language in six months, ” TED speaker Chris Lonsdale mentioned seven principles of language learning, and as long as you learn these methods, everyone can use the new language in a short time like a native speaker, and children are no exception.
These seven principles are:
1.
A lot of listening.
When learning a language, it ’ s important to expose yourself to a lot of the context of that language, which Chris Lonsdale calls “Brain Soaking. ”
Even if you can ’ t fully understand it, it doesn ’ t matter. A lot of listening can help you master the rhythm, rhythm, and obvious sounds of the language, and your subsequent learning will be smoother.
2.
First understand the meaning, then understand the meaning.
People who don ’ t understand each other ’ s words at all don ’ t need to understand each other ’ s words, and can also understand each other through body language.
Therefore, without having to delve into the meaning of each word, you can first try to understand the meaning of the whole sentence with your existing knowledge, and then you can deeply understand the meaning of the word.
3.
Large number of repetitive combinations
Chris Lonsdale believes that people who have just learned a new language are like babies, and must reuse the simple words they have learned.
With 10 verbs, 10 nouns, and 10 adjectives, you can create 1,000 usages. Through repeated combinations, you can become familiar with the rules of the language.
4.
Master the core vocabulary
Each language has a high degree of repetition, as long as you grasp the core vocabulary, you can quickly grasp the characteristics of the language.
For example, in English, if you learn 1,000 words, you can use it in 85% of your daily vocabulary; the next 3,000 words you learn will only be used to refine the first 1,000 words.
Therefore, grasping these core words first can greatly improve the efficiency of English learning.
5.
Find a partner for your child to learn English
Parents will always be patient when teaching their children their mother tongue, creating a safe language learning environment.
Similarly, the child needs this environment to learn English, so that he / she can learn confidently and happily.
Finding an “English partner ” who understands what your child is saying no matter what, doesn ’ t immediately correct mistakes, gives appropriate feedback, and interprets them in a way that your child can understand will help your child learn English in a more positive context.
6.
Imitate other people ’ s faces.
Imitating the mouth shape of a native speaker can help learners grasp the correct pronunciation faster, and observing the mouth shape of others can also allow you to subconsciously absorb the rules of English.
Whether it is talking directly with the native speaker or looking for a video imitation on the Internet, it is a good way.
7.
Link language and context directly, not to the native language
Most people associate the meaning of the new language with the meaning of their native language when learning a language, such as “Fire ”, but in fact, we should not link English and Chinese characters directly, but rather with the image in our head.
Think of "Fire" as a strong smoke, heat, and red flame, and then connect it to the Chinese word "fire", so that you can think directly about the meaning of English, instead of associating through your native language.
Make use of English learning APP and English learning platform resources
In addition to using textbooks and textbooks, there are also many English learning apps and English learning platforms on the Internet. Parents can use these resources to arouse their children ’ s interest in learning and cultivate their children ’ s English skills in a lively and diverse manner.
1.
RANS READING RATING
LENS Reading Rating is a system commonly used in primary and secondary schools in the United States. More than 50,000 English books are graded according to the difficulty of the book content, helping parents and children to choose the right reading.
The TOEFL Primary Test transcript provides a reading index to determine your child ’ s English reading level. Parents can use the reading index to select reading materials that meet your child ’ s interest and level, arouse their child ’ s interest in reading English stories, and increase the way and opportunity to learn English.
After learning your child ’ s Lansi reading index, it can also help your child strengthen their reading ability. Choose English books that are more advanced than the index on the score sheet, so that your child can read challenging but not too difficult English stories, and gradually increase their reading ability.
2.
Duolingo
Duolingo is a completely free English learning app that can be used to learn many different languages. English is the language that most users learn.
It divides language learning into multiple stages, allowing users to learn from the simplest words and phrases step by step, and design "level strengthening index" and "weak words" between levels and levels to enhance memory.
The most interesting thing is that it makes language learning fun in a gamified way. After successfully challenging levels, it can accumulate experience points, purchase new equipment with gems, and set up a two-player game mode so that children and peers can learn from each other.
3.
Dumb-dormant.
If the child feels that Duolingo's game is not high enough, you may want to try "Stuck Back More Points".
In this English learning APP, the "dormant student" is invaded by small monsters, and the player must constantly challenge the words in order to defeat the small monsters; the word recitation process uses the "card box learning method" of the German psychologist Leitner, mixing the new words with the familiar words, and learning each word at least five times, to achieve the most complete memory effect.
The most special thing is that as long as the word recitation threshold is reached, you can exchange the official stationery gift of the entity.
Using the right method to learn the language not only makes the learning process more lively and interesting, but also deepens the child's learning motivation.
In the process of learning English, in addition to the English learning platform and English learning APP, parents may wish to help their children register for the TOEFL Primary to help them understand the learning results. The Lansi Reading Rating Index provided by the TOEFL Primary Test transcripts can also help parents select English books that meet their children ’ s reading level, build a good English reading habit, and lay a good foundation for subsequent English learning.

Content: ChatGPT designs Hong Kong-style content for Chinese and English learning difficulties Yu Chun-keung Memorial Secondary School trial plug-in
Author: Lu Chin-yang
Published: Updated:
The education community is discussing how to introduce ChatGPT to assist in teaching and administrative work. In an interview with Education 01, Yang Xuehai, the principal of Ho Man Tin Yu Chun Keung Memorial Secondary School, described ChatGPT as able to transcend Moodle ’ s limitations on student practice and improve teaching efficiency.
He also mentioned that schools are now purchasing Plug-in for ChatGPT, which allows ChatGPT to directly access the school database and enable ChatGPT to generate information for the education sector in Hong Kong, including DSE examinations, school administration and related regulations.
Yu Chun Keung Memorial Secondary School Principal Yang Hue Hoi mentioned that ChatGPT can go beyond Moodle ’ s limitations in student practice and improve teaching efficiency by targeting students ’ learning difficulties. (photo by Yu Chun Leung)
Moodle Limited Features ChatGPT to Learn Advanced Concepts
In 1994 and 1999, Principal Yang was seconded to the then Education Department to assist in the development of school and administrative management systems and to support schools in the development of information technology education.
After he became president in 2015, he gradually upgraded the school ’ s information technology facilities and introduced the Moodle system, which is commonly used in universities.
After students have completed their practice in the system, teachers can analyze the performance of students according to the data, understand the students' weaknesses, adjust the curriculum in a timely manner and make good use of the class time.
"ChatGPT came out and found it so interesting, it seemed to satisfy my shortcomings, it was like adding wings to the tiger," and "it satisfied the whole idea of education, and every subject was satisfied."
The school has introduced ChatGPT to help teach in a variety of subjects, such as senior high school history to develop students ’ appreciation and understanding of the DSE scoring criteria, and to help produce teaching materials for Chinese and English subjects.
For example, some teachers have used ChatGPT to prepare teaching materials, and the time required has been reduced from 45 minutes to 5 minutes. The extra time can be spent chatting with students or professional exchanges with colleagues.
The principal of Yu Chun Keung Memorial Secondary School, Yeung Hue Hoi, said the school is planning to trial the “Retrieval ” plugin so that ChatGPT can directly read the school ’ s content stored in the cloud to generate content suitable for the Hong Kong curriculum.

Buy Plugin Enhance ChatGPT Function to Read School Data Generated Content Directly
YU Chun-keung Memorial Secondary School ’ s efforts to optimize ChatGPT teaching did not stop there. Yang pointed out that the content generated by ChatGPT is limited by the database, and the data source is only foreign as of 2021. Therefore, ChatGPT plans to try the “Retrieval ” plugin to enable ChatGPT to read the content stored in the cloud directly by the school to generate content suitable for Hong Kong curriculum.
As an example, teachers often need to look through various kinds of documents when dealing with administrative matters, which takes a lot of time.
In the future, schools only need to store the relevant documents in the database and have ChatGPT read the data. Teachers can ask ChatGPT to find out the articles that need to be cited and provide administrative steps, and then the teachers can check and confirm them, so as to improve efficiency.
Individual teachers first try IT teachers one-on-one technical assistance
ChatGPT has been under discussion for only a few months, and many teachers are still holding a wait-and-see attitude. For example, President Yang will invite individual teachers to try ChatGPT first, and arrange IT teachers to provide 1: 1 guidance to help solve technical problems, so that teachers are more willing to try.
Once they understand the new technology, they can also help other teachers learn the new technology. It is believed that 60% to 80% of teachers in schools can master the new technology in only about two years and consider extending it to the whole school level.
The Principal of Yu Chun Keung Memorial Secondary School, Mr Yeung Hok-hoi (pictured), also has a set of initiatives to promote new technologies in schools to encourage teachers to adopt them.
On the left is Cai Tsung-hsi, a Chinese teacher, and on the right is Li Kun Wai, a history teacher. (photo by Yu Chun-liang)
As one of the first batch of trainees, the Chinese teacher of the school, Tsai Tsung-hsi, believes that if teachers are to use new technologies, they must first have relevant demonstrations, and their teaching examples will be able to lead the way, and other teachers will be willing to try them out when they see that their colleagues who have tried first can help students learn.
Using ChatGPT to generate listening volume recordings with AI for students ’ difficulties
ChatGPT has been introduced to help teachers in both Chinese and English subjects of Yu Chun Keung Memorial Secondary School. Mr Choi noted that it is difficult for teachers to carefully understand what students do not know. For example, the weakness of students may be due to lack of vocabulary and writing skills.
For example, he pointed out that one of the most common problems of students is that they cannot distinguish which data provided by the topic is suitable, so he used ChatGPT to generate the topic, and specified that there must be a certain amount of useless data in the data, so as to strengthen the ability of students to filter information.
As for English, teachers use ChatGPT to integrate teaching content, so that "listening, reading and writing" exercises can be closely linked to each other.
For example, through instructions, ChatGPT helps generate the "Listening, Reading and Writing" test papers with the same content and words, so that students can continue to use the same content to deepen their memory.
In the past, teachers would need to invest a lot of time to produce a similar result.
In addition, the English section also uses AI ’ s Text to Speech function to record the audio of the listening volume, eliminating the difficulty and time of the teacher recording, adjusting the speed of speech, setting different accents, and even adding the classic song “Green Sleeve ” to the HKDSE listening volume.

The biggest advantage of learning to speak English as a Foreign Language (WER) is that you can use it any time you return to your home country.
Whether you want to speak with an English speaker or want to have an informal conversation with a visitor, you will be fluent in English in no time.
Just imagine being able to go out shopping in Paris and discover that you can order food in Japanese.
You can then casually ask the waiters "How can I help you?"
If you want to learn English, listening is probably the most important aspect of your overall plan.
Even if you think you already know enough English to get around in most situations, there ’ s nothing like great sound quality to help make sure you retain what you hear.
Needless to say, you need to listen to things on a very consistent basis.
Try to find at least three different types of audio material that you can listen to.
Listen to conversations from newspapers, radio shows and music.
Over time, you ’ ll begin to hear new words and phrases coming in, and this will reinforce the words you ’ ve learned from your vocabulary lessons.
When you learn English, one of the worst things you can do is mumble in sentences and phrases.
People can understand the mumbling but the idea that you completed your sentence without looking original is completely unappealing to them.
This is why it is important to listen and speak in both languages.
In fact, it ’ s easier to learn English from native English speakers than from people who think only of their native language.
Grammar exercises are another way to reinforce new words and sentences.
There are two basic types of training.
One is purely objective and the other is conversational.
With the former, you try to form new words while the latter tend to use vocabulary and get certified successfully in the IELTS exam.

Content: Advantages of learning English from scratch with audio lessons
English seems difficult for those who are just beginning to comprehend the basics of foreign speech: it has many times and unusual grammatical structures, and the rules of reading and numerous exceptions can spoil all motivation.
Video + AudioConversational English Course for Beginners: https: / / www.bistroenglish.com / course /
In order not to abandon your studies, try audio lessons: with them you will be imbued with the rhythmics and intonations of foreign speech, learn to intuitively use grammatical and speech constructions.
The main advantages of audio English lessons for beginners
The main advantage is immersion in the language environment from the first minutes of classes.
A natural, “lively ” accent will eliminate incorrect memorization of words and expressions, help to train listening skills, which is especially important for those who plan to use a foreign language in work, travel or everyday life.
In addition, audio lessons:
• logically built from simple to complex;
• not boring as traditional textbooks;
• convenient to listen anywhere: on the way home, in public transport, during sports;
• differ in topics, so you can choose the most interesting material;
• allow you to adjust the playback speed for better perception.
Audio lessons do not require visual concentration, as in classes on textbooks or video materials.
Therefore, you will be able to comprehend foreign speech even in the background, just listening and repeating speech constructions behind the speaker.
Advice for those who are just starting out
To get acquainted with English turned into a stable sympathy, use the advice of our experts:
• gradually complicate classes, do not rush to take up grammar until you master the principles of reading, pronunciation;
• repeat the foreign speech for the speaker more often, and even better - write down your pronunciation and compare it with the standard;
• be sure to adopt intonations and accent features - they make the language alive;
• do not stop at the “school ” format: modern audio lessons include fragments of popular songs, films and cartoons, theatrical scenes, interesting podcasts.
If you have time, the algorithm of classes is built as follows: “Listen – Learn – Repeat ”.
That is, first you get acquainted with the material, pay attention to incomprehensible words and difficult moments.
Then disassemble the transcription of the lesson, learn new words and expressions.
At the end, turn on the lesson again to repeat the entire material with the announcer from beginning to end.
If the lesson takes place in the background, then the analysis of the material is combined with listening.
Experts recommend that you always put the lesson on repetition in order to consolidate and work out new words and phrases.
However, the main secret of successful learning English from scratch by audio lessons is regularity.
It is better to practice a little every day than to allocate hours to a foreign language a couple of times a week.
Be consistent and persistent – and you will surely succeed!

Content: Opinions and Articles
What is deepfake technology and how does it work?
What is deepfake technology and what is its mechanism of action and the limits of its potential that can be used to fake videos, images and sounds?
# Alert your personal opinion as a specialist in the field in the last post:
Deepfake is a very dangerous artificial intelligence technique that is used in the manufacture and counterfeiting of videos, images and sounds, which can show people saying or doing things they never said or did in fact and can reach high accuracy in it with the large size of data used in the training of the quasms that the technology works on.
Let ’ s start with Voice Deepfake, also known as Voice Cloning, is an artificial intelligence technique designed to create quasmids capable of imitating the voice of a real person.
In order to do this, it must be trained on the recordings of the target person and after the completion of the training phase, the algorithm is able to produce a synthetic voice similar to the voice of the target person.
To do this, specialists use natural language processing techniques such as NLP, a machine learning technique that enables computers to interpret, process, and understand human language.
These techniques are used to identify the distinctive voice features of the voice of the target person and there are a large number of voice features that are analyzed, including the feature of pitch and low voice so that there are people characterized by high voice and others by low voice, and is also analyzed speed feature in the nature of the speech of the target person, and also of these features Cadence, which is the way the voice of the target.
Of course, to reach high accuracy, there must be huge data to train Khasmia many recordings of the target person and the easiest way to reach quick results to falsify the voice of a person is to use one of the existing Khasmia online open source and the transfer learning technology on it and train the algorithm on a simple recording can Khasmia trained high precision easily identify the voice features and imitate.
But the problem is that most of the existing algorithms yes are high precision but they have been trained on either recordings in English or classical Arabic and algorithms trained on ZD data for those who enter a section in Sudanese bicycles get what is known as data drifting and this leads me a sharp decline in the accuracy of the results of the algorithm so you will find the product section very clear that it is fake.
Good and solution?
In the case of trying to fake the voice of a person in a Sudanese dialect using the technology of transfer learning will not benefit and will not come satisfactory results so you must train Khasmia from scratch on data using too many clips for the target person and is a very cumbersome process so you find there is a Russian company that offers this service to produce clips in English to fake videos and voice me anyone but at a cost of $20,000 per minute English can cost you $100,000.
The conclusion of the personal opinion that the audio in the video is real, but the video may be an old video was installed audio and adjust the synchronization and movement of the lips using the Deepfake technology in the video I noticed in the movement of the lips of the speaker some errors in the synchronization between what is said and the movement of the lips.

How to teach Uzbek language in online courses
Ten years of studying the Uzbek language at school have not taught many Russian-speaking Uzbeks to speak the state language.
Learn the language today offer private online courses.
Gazeta.uz asked the founders of three such schools about the idea of   launching lessons, difficulties and requests of students.

Gazeta.uz asked the founders of three such schools about the idea of   launching lessons, difficulties and requests of students.
Laziza Asimova
founder of the online school of the Uzbek language uzbekonline.ru
About the idea of creating courses of the Uzbek language
I have been living in Russia for 15 years.
I really wanted my children to know Uzbek at least at an embryonic level.
I brought here an Uzbek-speaking nanny, put on Uzbek cartoons, we tried to speak Uzbek at home.
But such point-by-point approaches do not work very well.
Because the first language for the child will be the language of kindergarten, school and YouTube channel.
Uzbek (or any other) language will outweigh, most of the environment and information that surrounds the child comes in Uzbek.
The idea to create online courses of the Uzbek language came to me after I learned about the existence of such courses in the Georgian language.
It came as a surprise to me because Uzbekistan and its population is much larger than Georgia.
I wanted to create such a course so that people living abroad would have access to the Uzbek language.
Not being a teacher or a teacher, I was involved in the organization.
I knew online was the future.
In this regard, we have anticipated a pandemic.
By the beginning of the pandemic, our school had been in existence for two years.
When studying the topic, I realized that we have very few textbooks, self-taught - it's just a miracle, if you find it.
I found some kind of methodology for English-speaking foreigners in English who study Uzbek.
I found one textbook of the Uzbek language, which was published in Russia.
And a very ancient tutorial of 1967 by the author Bakiev.
That's all.
The rest are very disparate sources.
To organize online courses, I conducted more than 80 interviews with teachers and found real teachers with a capital letter - experts in the Uzbek language and practitioners.
They are based on the needs of the student.
Their main task is to teach a person to speak Uzbek.
She devoted a lot of time to online marketing and online management, because our teaching staff is scattered around the world.

About students
A month after the launch of the courses, I realized that my main audience, experiencing the need to learn the Uzbek language, is in Uzbekistan itself.
People complained that they needed Uzbek, but they could not find teachers, normal courses.
Today, 90% of uzbekonline.ru students are people from Uzbekistan of various nationalities and professions.
Mostly students over 30 years old.
They have lived all their lives in Uzbekistan, studied Uzbek for 10 years in school, and almost everyone says that they have a persistent rejection of the program because they were forced to learn poems and read aloud.
“You don ’ t have that?
How different are you, ” they asked.
We specifically made one lesson open to show people the format in which we teach.
Many people laughed at us, left comments: “Who needs Uzbek?
The future is in English. ”
But someone went to study.
We started getting good reviews right away.
People said we were helping them start talking at the household level.
Some of our students start from zero.
Others speak a little, but would like to develop.
Such students show very great progress, provided that they are engaged.
About courses
This was our task - for three months to teach to communicate at the household level: to come to the doctor, to go to the bazaar, to buy a ticket.
And we actually fulfill our promise, provided that the person is engaged.
The teachers who developed the method, I set the task: not to complicate.
We give the most common rules, without which it is impossible to speak at all, to understand the nature and essence of the language.
That's why I wasn't looking for deep scientists.
They may feel like they have to give everything.
I think it ’ s better to know 300 words and use them than to know 5000, but not to use them.
As a basis, we take the Ferghana dialect of the Uzbek language, which is considered literary.
The lesson is built in this way: first, the theoretical part, when the rule is explained, its use, then you need to perform various exercises to consolidate this rule.
For example, find the missing word, say a tongue twister on a given topic.
Any material can always be reviewed, overheard, because repetition is an important factor for learning a language.
In school, at best, you remember 30%.
If four years ago there was almost no online access to the study of the Uzbek language, now the market has come to life: there are courses, there are tutors, a lot of material in social networks.
Everyone is well aware of the need for the Uzbek language.
Therefore, we have opened lessons for B1 and B2 levels.
We have developed the methodology, criteria and testing of students to determine the level of language proficiency.
Our program for students with an average knowledge of the language including consists of films, songs, books, news, speeches of announcers.
But in the lessons for beginners, such materials to use early.
You need to understand that any result requires effort.
If the person is very busy, we offer a flexible schedule.
Listen to lessons while driving, cook soup with one hand, and do exercises with the other at a convenient time.
A 30-minute lesson can be broken.
In addition, we do not recommend doing three hours a day.

About the language barrier and ways to learn a language
Especially strong language barrier among students of Uzbek nationality living in Uzbekistan.
If their families did not speak Uzbek, they are especially tormented by the pronunciation.
To eliminate it, we have listening lessons, where you first need to listen to the recording, then say what you heard with an audio message.
This is a good practice, because a person will first listen to himself, often re-record - and so on several times.
In addition, we have a private chat for activities.
Teachers give tongue twisters that need to be spoken.
When you hear that people in the environment also speak with mistakes, you begin to understand that this is normal and you are not alone.
We are often asked, “Why go to school?
You just need to marry an Uzbek / go to the mahalla / bazaar / army for two months. ”
This method works with people with a brilliant memory, ability to learn languages, which is very easy to grasp.
But there are few such people.
I do not take these recommendations seriously, because I myself found myself in a situation of painful total immersion in the language.
I was in Italy, where the information was only in Italian.
In the third month, I spoke Italian with huge mistakes.
It was a stress I wouldn ’ t wish on anyone.
To avoid it, you need a minimum base: to understand the times, to distinguish the verb from the adverb.
Saida Rashidova

About the idea of creating courses of the Uzbek language
All my activities have always been related to English.
For six years I worked at TIS (Tashkent International School – ed.), where I had the opportunity to learn from foreign experts in the field of pedagogy.
But everyone recognizes that TIS is a place that has nothing to do with Uzbekistan.
There is no Uzbek language in the program, rarely talk about the history and culture of our country.
It began to strain me, I lost interest in the English language and began to penetrate Uzbek.
It was also disturbing that I always felt like a guest in my country.
Foreigners talked about Uzbekistan, and I understood that I did not know anything about it.
I began to worry about how my children would learn Uzbek.
Before the pandemic, I decided to go into tourism.
I thought that I would satisfy my interest and spread it in others.
I wanted to feel Uzbek and be proud of it.
But because of the lockdown with tourism did not work.
I started teaching English, but I realized that I didn ’ t leave TIS for that.
Therefore, in the summer of 2020, she posted an announcement on her Facebook page that she was ready to give Uzbek lessons for any money.
Soon the first students appeared: a girl Kazakh, Korean, American and African.
At that time, I didn ’ t know that Turkic speakers should be separated, but the experience was still interesting.
Experience has helped me in teaching.
I drew up a program, discussed it with the faculty of Westminster University, showed it to my classmates and only then brought it to the masses.
In June 2021, I decided to teach Russian: it was scary to go to this audience, because I do not like to study grammar, I do not teach through grammar, I do not understand parts of speech very well, I do not know the terminology of linguistics very well.

On the minuses of teaching the Uzbek language in schools and the complexity of the Uzbek language
Uzbek is a Turkic language and Turkic languages are agglutinative.
They have a structure in which the dominant type of word change is agglutination - "gluing" various suffixes or prefixes, each of which carries only one meaning.
The simplest example is “Are you from Uzbekistan? ”
In Russian, it is three words, in English - four, and in Uzbek - one "Uzbekistondanmisiz".
This property of language needs to be understood, it simplifies its understanding.
In Uzbek, very long words, and this can only be accepted.
But the grammar is very easy, and that's a bonus of the language.
Simple cases, the future and the present do not change the verb.
Pronunciation can be difficult due to throat sounds.
The disadvantages of teaching Uzbek in schools are obvious.
The content of past textbooks was not applicable to children ’ s current lives.
In Russian-language classes, Uzbek began to be taught from the second grade.
In elementary school there was already Alisher Navoi, Babur, beautiful independent Uzbekistan with its beautiful nature.
But kids aren't interested in independence, they're interested in Haggy Waggy.
Also, there was no understanding of what to teach, and it should be in all classes.
There are 100 words in English that you need to learn at the beginner level.
There should also be such a list in Uzbek.
Textbooks should be made from these words.
It should also be borne in mind that textbooks for children studying Uzbek as a foreign language should contain words from the daily life of the child.
But in the old textbooks there were words that even a native speaker of the Uzbek language of the age for which this textbook was written does not use.
It is necessary to use the appropriate age of students vocabulary.
Moreover, in primary school children are taught to write and read in Uzbek language lessons.
I believe that since we learn first to hear and listen, then to speak, and then to read and write, the lessons of the Uzbek language should be built through communication.
It is necessary to talk to the child, to feel his needs.
Without it, education will not be successful.
For a man to speak, he must hear the speech.
Because the text is not about pronunciation, especially in Tashkent.
A person looks at the printout, does exercises, and going outside, he does not understand speech.
This is especially important for people for whom the Uzbek-speaking environment is a novelty, that is, for those who came to Uzbekistan.

About the course
When developing the course, I tried to focus on the methodology of Dmitry Petrov, who states that in 16 hours you can learn any language.
The main thing is to understand how verbs are conjugated in different times.
However, this method did not work, because the lessons turn into cramming and because my brain works situationally, and not on the tables, especially in a stressful situation, which is a conversation in a new language for a person.
I teach the Uzbek language “for survival ” according to my method.
I work with adults because children demand more attention and full commitment.
The duration of the course is 4-5 weeks.
I give knowledge that will help a person survive: ask for directions, buy food, medicines, call an ambulance.
It is not necessary to speak perfectly at this level.
It is important to speak here.
During the course, a person will learn to speak in a way that is understood.
I try to make sure people use the ending more or less correctly.

I started teaching at Zoom.
At first, she interacted with students throughout the class: explained the theory of the presentation, asked to ask questions.
Soon the students were asked to write down the theoretical part so that they would watch it before class and come to practice.
She began to do video lessons, and in Zoom invite native speakers, so that students and native speakers, breaking up into pairs, could communicate in the “online room ”.
After 20 minutes of conversation, they told that they had learned about each other.
I quickly burned out because recording video lessons takes a lot of time.
In addition, video tutorials give grammar, but how to make a person speak?
After all, if you decide as a teacher to give a theory, be kind to give as much practice.
I had little practice.
In July of this year, I thought through all the topics of the “survival language ” and broke them into several blocks: about myself, family, work, hobbies, about buying food, clothes, about going to the pharmacy, as well as force majeure.
One block I left on the subject on request.
For example, a Russian-speaking ophthalmologist may ask for help with composing a dialogue in Uzbek to serve the client when choosing glasses.
I uploaded all these topics to an online platform where you can not only perform exercises in text format, but also record audio messages.
The whole theory is based on exercises.
For their implementation on the platform, the student receives a score.
But he does not get a score if he does not do an exercise in which he needs to send a voice message.
I also have a bonus system.
For those who get a lot of points, I give one or two individual lessons.
For those who score less points, I give my book in Russian or Uzbek.
In addition, I urge students to give themselves a gift at the end of it, because they have spent time.
Zoom is still there.
I also came up with the small-talk format, which is short calls to students that I record.
At first they communicate only with me, and then with native speakers whom I invite.
With me, they rehearse one topic, and with carriers they practice.
This is how we monitor the dynamics.
About teaching materials
When people ask me about textbooks, I usually recommend a two-volume book for levels A1, A2, B1, B2 of Nigora Azimova.
It can be found on Amazon.
It's worth $90.
It comes with video footage, but when my student ordered it, the CDs didn't come.
A modern good textbook is a textbook that has audio or video material.
Another textbook is Alexei Arzamazov ’ s tutorial.
Suitable for Russian-speaking students.
We have trouble with dictionaries.
When I was teaching English, my kids and I went to the U.S. Embassy for movie nights.
I learned that the embassy had published its own English-Uzbek dictionary.
When will Uzbekistan publish a dictionary?
I have an explanatory dictionary of old and new samples, as well as a Soviet Russian-Uzbek.
The absence of a dictionary is one of the problems, very important and solvable problems.
On the ways of learning the Uzbek language and the language barrier
The language barrier has many different reasons.
This is a psychological issue that needs to be dealt with: someone was laughed at as a child, someone was forced to teach incomprehensible poems.
It happens that a person does not perceive his voice in this language, so I ask students to record the speech, listen to it and get used to the idea that it is their voice.
I am glad that the Uzbek language is changing.
I follow what famous bloggers say.
The interface of my phone is in Uzbek, and I really like that Telegram hired a very good translator who translated emoji in a cool way.
The Uzbek language of gadgets displaces borrowed words.
All, of course, not to displace, but it is not necessary.
All this helps to learn the language.
Translate the phone interface into Uzbek is the minimum that a person who wants to learn it can do.
Another way is to talk to strangers, salespeople, taxi drivers.
One of my students, an American, studied French and Russian.
According to her, the speakers of these languages constantly cling to mistakes, so a person learns and improves them so as not to feel shame for mistakes.
But with the Uzbek language, in her opinion, everything is different.
People here are happy if you can say two words with mistakes.
This is an ideal environment for learning the Uzbek language.
It is good that our people do not laugh at mistakes.
You can talk to yourself, read the composition of products, signs or news headlines in Uzbek and native language, and then compare them to understand the order of words, see similar or the same words.
I also publish excerpts from books on my channel.
For example, she published two chapters of The Little Prince.
I plan to download exercises in Uzbek from books in the app.
Last year I also did a small course on the analysis of several episodes of the play “Uzbekcha rax ” (“ Uzbek dance ” – ed.).
At the end, my students and I went to a performance at the Hamza Theater.
This year, for the new year, I plan to do a course “Uzbek language on the film“ Home Alone ” ”.
I don ’ t have a course for advanced level and I don ’ t know if I will do it.
But books, performances, films allow you to give different levels of complexity.

About teaching experience
My research work is devoted to the scientific and methodological foundations of teaching Uzbek as a foreign language (according to the andragogy model of teaching).
I have been teaching Uzbek to foreigners since 2015.
I started when I was in graduate school.
I prepared for each lesson separately, because I could not find the necessary resources and did not know the methodology of teaching a foreign language.
My student was a Korean language teacher and he told me a little about the methodology.
I managed to dive deeper into this sphere after I got a job at the Tashkent State University of Uzbek Language and Literature named after Alisher Navoi.
In 2018, we formed a team of the MOTUL project to teach the Uzbek language.
They organized seminars and classes.
In 2019, together with my supervisor, candidate of medical sciences Saodat Adilova developed the O ’ zbekona program.

On the shortcomings of teaching the Uzbek language in schools
Uzbek is studied in schools for 12 years, but textbooks do not cover four aspects of learning: reading, listening, speaking and writing.
They are intended only for teaching vocabulary and grammar, so the subject “Uzbek language ” has always been the most boring for students.
Another problem was that no teachers had been trained to teach Uzbek as a second language or as a foreign language.
Such footage began to appear in 2018, but they are still missing.
About the course
Our method is non-standard.
It is based on an integrative approach, which is widespread in the world and allows you to learn a language in a short time.
Students of the MOTUL project learn conversational Uzbek at B2 level in 12 months.
Further, you can learn the business Uzbek language.
For each level, we select words depending on the frequency of their use.
The dictionary of the literary Uzbek language we do not use and do not teach dialects.
Our task is to teach language as a means of communication.
Students of the Uzbek language are influenced by the dialect of the region in which they study it.
Foreigners in Tashkent can learn the Tashkent dialect right on the street.
A person who knows one dialect will be able to understand the literary and spoken Uzbek language and respond.
Unfortunately, international standards for teaching Uzbek as a foreign language have not been developed in accordance with the domestic methodology.
Because of this there are many problems in the field.
We cannot preserve the Uzbek language at the expense of foreigners.
Its preservation, including the literary form, is the duty of the Uzbek people.

OpenAI has introduced a new tool based on artificial intelligence Voice Engine, capable of voicing texts with the voice of any person.
This is on the OpenAI website.
In particular, having a 15-second sample of the sound of speech, the instrument can reproduce the voice of any person.
Voice Engine has the same AI model underlying the “read aloud ” feature of ChatGPT chatbot.
The tool is offered to be used to translate videos and podcasts.
Voice Engine retains the natural accent of the speaker even in translation.
Also, the developers note that Voice Engine can help people who can not read or children in learning, since natural sound is better perceived than robotic voices.
Voice Engine can be used to restore voice to patients with impaired speech apparatus.
People will be able to communicate by voicing their text queries in natural language thanks to the tool, added to OpenAI.
OpenAI created the Voice Engine in late 2022, but there is no public access to it yet.
Developers fear that it can be used to create deepfakes.

Content: Helping teachers improve their teaching with new mother-tongue textbooks to make Chinese learning more lively and easier
Font Size:
Yan Xiaofang, Minister of Administration of the Ministry of Education and Manpower, said that the "ABLE Chinese I can also do" working group, as early as 2017 to the school to carry out small-scale teaching experiments.
The new book “ABLE Teaching for All ” is the culmination of teaching resources after several years of project practice to help teachers improve and optimize mother-tongue teaching.
Students actively raise small hands, Hongliang voice answers, teachers vivid teaching, all of a sudden to make the classroom atmosphere relaxed.
The performance of Primary Four students of Yong Yi Primary School in the ABLE Chinese classroom shows that the road to learning Chinese is not difficult.
Yan Xiaofang, Minister of Education and Minister of Manpower, officiated at the launching ceremony of the new book “ABLE Teaching ” at Yong Yi Primary School on Thursday (April 6).
In line with the Mother Tongue Support Programme launched by the Ministry of Education in 2019, the new book is the culmination of the teaching resources of the “ABLE ” Chinese project under this program after several years of practice, to help teachers improve and optimize their teaching.
Yan Xiaofang said in her speech that members of the ABLE working group had come to the school for small-scale teaching experiments as early as 2017.
The Mother-tongue Assisted Programme assists Primary 3 and 4 students with weaker mother tongues to build a foundation, enhance their interest in their mother tongue and enhance their self-confidence.
The ABLE project has been launched in Primary Three and Primary Four classes across the country. Through observation, the school will draw students who need more support from mainstream Chinese classes and join the ABLE intensive classes to conduct more effective Chinese teaching in the form of small classes.
Yong Yi Primary School also held an ABLE open class in the fourth grade on Thursday, which mainly helps students learn the new words in the text.
The students responded enthusiastically and each raised his hand to answer, showing little confidence in the Chinese language.
The purpose of ABLE classes is not to lower the standard of Chinese for students with weak Chinese, but to help them learn Chinese in a more personal way, and the small class system allows teachers to focus more on helping students.
ABLE students not only have the same number and time of classes as the mainstream classes, but also use the same textbooks and test content and difficulty as the mainstream classes.
In the design of the textbook, there are core units and reinforcement units, the latter has more assistance, such as full text spelling, reducing the number of words, and using pictures to help ABLE students better understand the text.
Teachers interviewed: Physical movement helps students learn vocabulary
There are one or two students in this class that I brought up in my junior year.
Before, they could not recognize a word, but in today's class, they have been trying, and progress is really a lot.
They will sit very quietly during their Chinese lessons in the big class.
But in the environment of small classes, through games, forget that they are learning Chinese and overcome obstacles.
So, I think this course was helpful for them.
— — Lin Wei-sang, Chinese teacher at Yong Yi Primary School
Yong Yi Primary School ’ s Chinese teacher, Lin Wei-sang (37), used ABLE resources to stimulate students ’ interest through word cards, small games, group interaction and rewards in the open class on Thursday, so that they can learn Chinese effectively in a joyful environment.
Lin says that most of the students in the class are visual learners, so physical movement is important to help them relate movement to vocabulary.
She also pointed out that students perform differently in mainstream classes and ABLE classes.
“There are one or two students in this class that I brought up in the junior year.

So, I think the course will be helpful to them.
Teachers can adopt the teaching methods in the book "ABLE Teaching for All" to improve teaching skills and efficiency.
"The new book will teach teachers how to teach intensive units, provide a process for teachers to know what activities are involved in each session and lead their children to learn," said Wang Yanyan, a senior specialist supervisor in the Chinese Language Section of the Ministry of Education's Curriculum Planning and Development Division.
She also pointed out that the new book was launched at this time because the ABLE project has been implemented for several years, and teachers have been fully exposed to the project and have certain experience and experience.
She hopes that after the publication of the new book, schools can use the book to start some professional development activities, discuss teaching methods, and jointly improve Chinese teaching skills and methods.

OpenAI was forced to apologise to actor Scarlett Johansson last week for using her voice -- or something very similar -- on its latest chatbot, throwing the spotlight on to voice-cloning tech.

Although OpenAI denied the voice they used was Johansson's, their case was not helped by CEO Sam Altman flagging the new model with a one-word message on social media -- "Her".

Johansson voiced an AI character in the film "Her", which Altman has previously said is his favourite film about the technology.

Right from the start, AI voice cloning has proved problematic.

Last year, British firm Elevenlabs went viral for all the wrong reasons when it released its voice-cloning software.

Internet pranksters immediately began pushing out deepfaked celebrities -- Harry Potter star Emma Watson was shown reading Hitler's Mein Kampf.

Law enforcement warned that AI clones could be used to extort money from loved ones over the phone.

The technology has developed rapidly in the past year becoming far more realistic and nuanced.

Danish entrepreneur Victor Riparbelli, CEO of British AI firm Synthesia, told AFP it was largely down to a program called Tortoise that was released two years ago.

The program's developers threw thousands of hours of voice data into their model in an unstructured way and discovered it not only learnt what to say but how to say it.

"That was a pretty big paradigm shift," Riparbelli said on the sidelines of last week's VivaTech conference in Paris.

Tortoise was an open source program and Elevenlabs was the first to go to market using it.

OpenAI uses similar systems though they do not release any details.

Much of the controversy around voice cloning has focused on concerns over people misusing the software.

But the claim against OpenAI is unusual because it is the company itself accused of playing fast and loose.

"It was very unfortunate that OpenAI did that -- really not very good," Katya Laine, CEO of TALKR.ai, told AFP at VivaTech.

"If they actually cloned her voice without her knowing then I think that's very very bad," said Riparbelli.

The two entrepreneurs are among hundreds harnessing AI voice programs for uses that they argue will make companies more efficient.

Laine's firm provides virtual voice assistants -- essentially AI customer service agents.

She said her firm's system could now resolve 25 to 30 percent of calls without any human involvement.

Synthesia specialises in video avatars, which Riparbelli said allowed any office worker to turn text or slides into a video performed by a realistic AI.

Both Riparbelli and Laine allow their clients to use their own avatars, off-the-shelf products or those supplied by the likes of OpenAI and Elevenlabs.

Riparbelli said Synthesia used actors whose likenesses and voices were licensed for two years with an option to renew after the initial period.

The problems arise if actors' voices are used without their consent.

The fiasco overshadowed a developer conference in Paris last week when OpenAI was showing off a suite of new tools.

In front of a big screen in an auditorium, Romain Huet, OpenAI's Head of Developer Experience, breezily chatted into his phone.

Seconds later, his short voice sample had been processed and could be heard commentating over a generated video -- in five languages.

The demonstration showed how quickly the field is moving, but the headlines had already been written.

The Washington Post asked in a newsletter "How dumb is OpenAI?", other commentators were suggesting wunderkind Altman was nothing more than a huckster.

Nonetheless, Riparbelli was open to OpenAI's argument that they had used another actor who just sounded liked Johansson.

"If it's not her but someone who sounds a lot like her... where do you draw that line," Riparbelli asked.

"If they're not allowed to use someone who sounds a lot like her, then it sets a very odd precedent."

A French videographer uses Deep Vike to simulate the voices of current and late politicians who are engaged in live dialogue with users on Twitch, including French President Emmanuel Macron and two of his famous predecessors, Charles de Gaulle and Jacques Chirac.
Anis Ayari, an AI engineer and owner of a scientific simplification YouTube channel called Defend Intelligence, was behind his “deep fakes ” as satirical content.
But the experience took on negative dimensions on Tuesday, when a netizen asked an alleged Macron what the worst name was for a French village, and artificial intelligence answered “La Mort-aux-Juifs ” (French for“ Death to Jews ”), a small village in the Lauret region of central France that was renamed in 2015.
This led to the immediate blocking of the canal.
The channel ’ s owner wrote in a message on the platform X (formerly Twitter) that he had filed an appeal against the decision and relaunched the live streaming sessions on the rival platform Kick.com.
Months ago, this expert, who promotes virtual “assistants ” to companies, also used deep fakes to get the French president to sing his voice a song by famous singer Charles Aznavour.
He revealed in a video the techniques he adopted in this video trick.
Finally, Ayari began to clone historical or other current figures such as Elon Musk, engaging them in “discussions ” with current political players.

Ayari asserts that using different information services costs him about 150 euros per day.

Faced with absurd questions from some netizens, Emmanuel Macron in the fake version gives strange answers, for example, “The pension system is out of my programming.

Actors, for their part, are concerned about the use of their images from studios, and the cybersecurity community is seeing a rise in phone-based phishing techniques.

He says through his channels that the content he publishes is “satirical. ”
