speech synthesizer
Artificial talking device
A speech synthesizer is a device or software that converts text into spoken audio, producing artificial human-like voice output.
Early versions sounded robotic, but modern synthesizers using AI can be nearly indistinguishable from human speech.
The accessibility app uses a speech synthesizer to read articles aloud.
Also called text-to-speech.
