Text to speech (TTS) technology converts written text into spoken audio using artificial intelligence and neural networks. Modern TTS systems like Microsoft Azure produce incredibly natural-sounding voices that are nearly indistinguishable from human speech.
TTS technology has come a long way from the robotic voices of the 1980s. Today's AI-powered systems analyze text at a deep linguistic level, understanding context, punctuation, and even emotion to produce fluid, expressive speech.
