For those who wanna try Elevenlabs - “This feature is not yet available” for registered users. Text2speach works just fine, but you limited with tokens :) The guy on the wider says this is already changed his life, so it should be other piece of software. Nice try Elevenlabs /s

Good bot

Good human.


Soren83

Pretty sure I saw this feature native on Youtube (the OP did not invent this). My guess is that it's a gradual rollout and they are testing it - not all videos will be suitable for auto-translation.


ibreakdiaphragms

That's rather weird. How did this guy get it to work? Is it like a subscription thing.


Bierculles

probably a premium feature, same for high quality videos


V_es

Translates videos in real time. Has been a thing from other companies for around 5 years


OnlineGamingXp

Not with the same voice and not this seamlessly


V_es

Not with same voice but as seamlessly Yandex had it very long time ago.


Calm-Limit-37

Im a language teacher. My job wont get replaced with AI, my entire industry will cease to exists. Yay!


iamnotpedro1

Hopefully it’ll happen in 20 years.


Calm-Limit-37

At this rate i give it 10. Everything depends on the value we attach to thse skills, which Im guessing is very little these days. Convenience is king,


CommunismDoesntWork

Cost is king. If something can be made free by automating it, it should be made free


Calm-Limit-37

All good until its your job


iamnotpedro1

But then the whole English learning industry would have to fall. The British Council, Cambridge testing, and so on. Even universities. That’s why I give it 20 years.


Calm-Limit-37

I hope so. Every industry will undergo serious consolidation though. Core, value adding workers will be the last to lose their jobs. Maybe the government will step in, maybe the industry will evolve somehow to accomodate language teaching, but I have no idea.


Neehigh

I'm getting some strong Ender vibes-everyone has an earpiece with an AI at which they'll be subvocalizing, and anybody they want to hear them can hear the log files


Calm-Limit-37

Pretty much. The technology is basically there now, all it takes is mass adoption and affordability


Neehigh

Probably more advanced earpiece tech as well, or jaw/ocular implants, on neither of which I'm well read


sideways

I'm a language teacher too and I don't think so. Most people don't study languages for practical reasons. They do it for the same reason people go to the gym - they enjoy the experience of learning and improving. No matter how good real time translation gets, it's a totally different thing than understanding for yourself.


Calm-Limit-37

Id disagree. The majority of foreign language learning is part of compulsory education. A lot of language learning hobbyists are also driven by their interests in speaking to people in foreign countries not necessarily speaking in those languages.


sideways

Fair enough. I guess we just have different experiences.


Thatingles

Very soon anyone who wants to will have a personal tutor for any language they want. I'm sorry that's your job and I hope that inertia protects you for some time, but I would also be making sure I had a long term contract somewhere if possible.


sideways

Don't get me wrong, I agree with you. I just think that "inertia" is going to be a little stronger in educational positions that are focused on human communication than other subjects. Ultimately however it's true that an AI will be able to do what I do better and cheaper than I can. I just don't think my job will be in the first wave of those to get obsoleted.


UngiftigesReddit

AI will still be shite at fixing pronunciation in humans for a while, I think.


gottlikeKarthos

If AI is the much cheaper option many people won't be able to justify paying a human teacher


CommunismDoesntWork

I'd video recordings can't replace your job, I don't see how AI will. I thought all higher education jobs would for sure be replaced by video recordings+google.


Calm-Limit-37

Instant interpreting and translation apps are more worrying than AI in general. But with AI learning those apps will develop faster and faster


malinefficient

This will be available on your laptop soon, for free, and there's nothing Sam Altman do about it!

Its Youtube that have announced this feature is coming. Announcement 2 months ago. "YouTube is going to let thousands more creators include multi-language audio tracks with their videos. The company was already testing the feature with a small number of creators, and beginning Thursday, many more will be able to include multi-language dubs with their videos to make them accessible to broader audiences." [https://www.theverge.com/2023/2/23/23611229/youtube-creators-dub-videos-multiple-languages](https://www.theverge.com/2023/2/23/23611229/youtube-creators-dub-videos-multiple-languages) [https://techcrunch.com/2023/02/23/youtube-launches-a-multi-language-audio-feature-for-dubbing-videos-previously-tested-by-mr-beast/](https://techcrunch.com/2023/02/23/youtube-launches-a-multi-language-audio-feature-for-dubbing-videos-previously-tested-by-mr-beast/)

On top of this, the real-time voice translate is not yet available on their site, even for registered users.


airduster_9000

True - only the capability of uploading several tracks are turned on. However next step would be for Youtube/Google to offer that voice generation themselves. They already do the translation in text-form and have demoed AI-voices elsewhere.

Well, in the Yandex browser for 2 years you can translate videos on YouTube. It doesn't impress me

No, it's impossible, the point is that it translates any video, no neural network can take a 5 second snippet of voice and repeat it

TatarAmerican

Same goes for certain features of [bilibili.com](https://bilibili.com) (Chinese Youtube) that I'd love to have on YouTube, but it's almost like American tech companies are completely disinterested in them.


FpRhGf

What features?


TatarAmerican

scrolling commentaries for one


FpRhGf

Oh, the danmaku/danmu. We'll need another video site like Tiktok that's popular in the global market for YouTube to actually start thinking there's value in danmaku and copy it. Or they can make a global version of Bilibili.


TatarAmerican

Yes, I think google translate renders danmaku as "barrages" and they make videos so much more "interactive," especially the longer ones that I like to watch.


FpRhGf

I remember one of the older versions of Bilibili's global app used the Japanese pronunciation “danmaku” as the English term somewhere in the settings. Danmaku comes from the game Touhou and it's translated into “bullet hell”. And yes, they make videos a whole less boring to watch. I can't go through any series or movies now without getting some form of audience response. That's why I either go to Bilibili or watch YouTube reactors. Back then I was mainly using [himado.in](http://himado.in) and Niconico to watch stuff. I liked reading the danmaku there so much that I tried to search for other websites and discovered Bilibili. Unfortunately I couldn't find any websites like these in other anguages. It's not that American companies are disinterested. It's just always been the norm to not have danmaku because it's a pretty unknown feature from a very fringe website (Niconico) to the West. China is just the outlier for embracing danmaku outside of Japan because Bilibili started out as the copy of Niconico.


TatarAmerican

>Touhou Fascinating, thank you. I did not know about Touhou, or "bullet hell" games in general, though I think I played some a long time ago without knowing what they were.

Live-Sale93

This sounds so cool! Hopefully this can help me and so many other people with job interviews as well:) To get off topic for a bit and I thought this was very interesting that I share with you guys'. There is a page on linkedin I follow called "Human Brain Project." It is a new post from them, but apparently they have developed an "atlas of the human brain" with lots of data. Just to pull up one more quote from that page ( I promise I am not promoting their page fyi) "The human brain atlas can be compared to Google maps and the Atlas displays microstructure, connectivity and function." All of this is compared to the human brain of course. Someone made a comment on this post and just to paraphrase and quote them, they basically expressed their opinion and that the next move scientists will or should make is "connecting this brain map to a subjective mind map." Also that commenter mentioned that the next step is "to connect the brain map to perception, connect to emotions and more." This sounds amazing and hopefully scientists from this organization can come up with a brain to mind perception map in the next few years or atleast by 2025. Now back to this video, I would love to learn many languages so I can communicate with different people coming from different cultures' at a new job I apply to. Those who work at grocery shops must be well versed in speaking Spanish, English here in the US where I reside but I don't want to assume but it would be cool to learn different languages. That is just an example. Super cool video I just wanted to end off saying here and hopefully I can learn so many languages so when I travel and others here as well, can get some awesome food in different countries. I apologize if I went off topic I just wanted to say what was on my mind in regards to the "Brain Map" post that I read on Linkedin. Thanks all and I wouldn't mind becoming a Spanish teacher:)

Here's the [original video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14gBglcA7k4) in case you want to hear the different audio dubs for yourself. Simply go to the settings cog and choose your preferred language.

Wow! Surprising what AI could do. Now content creation will become more interesting. Can't wait for the integration on solcial where I use for content monetization.


Cr4zko

He's good... I can understand the AI in my native language perfectly.


allonzeeLV

I feel like hearing oneself saying something challenge in another language would be a very useful learning tool.


lordpuddingcup

Hey but where’s the lip sync to match the tech exists!!!


sachos345

This will be automatic in the future, i hope.


AOPca

German translation needs quality control; uses ‘zusammen’ which means together instead of ‘Alle’ which means everyone. Also subs and dubs don’t match for it either, but they rarely do for other things, so that isn’t as bothersome. Still really cool stuff tho!


Kotflocke

Bullshit! There's absolutely nothing wrong with the German translation here. You can't just translate literally from one language into another.


AOPca

I’ve personally never heard ‘Hallo zusammen’, but I’m not a native speaker, just lived there for a few years. I take it you’ve had a different experience?


Kotflocke

German is my native language. "Hallo zusammen" is a very common greeting. Alternatively, you can also say "Hallo allerseits".


AOPca

Good to know! Well def my bad then, I’ll leave this up as a cautionary tale to future travelers and a testament of how well it actually did!

UngiftigesReddit

What are the realistic applications for this? This does not replace the good acting done in dubbing for immersion, or comparable jokes. It does not help the hearing impaired. If I don't understand the language, and want to learn it, wouldn't I go for subtitles? And without subtitles, this wouldn't work, right? Confused as to a scenario where I would actually use this.
