Brief news summary

Rep. Jennifer Wexton (D-Va.), who has lost her speaking voice due to a medical condition, recently introduced an artificial intelligence-generated version of her voice which sounds more natural. Wexton, who made news earlier this year for delivering a speech with a robotic-sounding voice, now has a more accurate representation of her original voice. The AI voice, generated by ElevenLabs, is able to modulate tone and produce lifelike speech. Wexton's staff spent a couple of weeks compiling audio clips of her speaking before her condition affected her voice. The technology has allowed Wexton to continue her work effectively, though she acknowledges concerns about the misuse of AI technology.

Representative Jennifer Wexton recently used an artificial intelligence-generated version of her own voice, which she has lost due to a degenerative medical condition. She introduced the new AI voice to her constituents and was able to address the House Appropriations Committee with a more natural-sounding voice. Wexton's staff considers this a significant moment, as it brings back something they didn't realize they had missed.

While the AI voice will never truly be her own, it has allowed her to continue fulfilling her congressional duties. The technology used by Wexton was developed by ElevenLabs, which aims to create lifelike, human-sounding speech using artificial intelligence.
