Two AI announcers were announced at the World Internet Conference held in Wuwei, China. According to Xinhua, the AI ​​announcer seems to be a clone created from the voice and face of a male announcer actually present. AI is synthesized from speech extracted from the video of a human announcer, movement of lips, facial expressions, etc. When I see the movie, I am surprised by the realistic image. On the other hand, Xinhua points out that the big difference between them is that "human announcers can work only 8 hours a day, AI can work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week".

AI announcer officially joined the reporter team of Xinhua, "With the other announcers, we can communicate reliable, timely and accurate news in Chinese and English," Thing.
