The struggle to voice clone my Irish accent - PlayHT review

Struggling with AI voice clones that just can't get your accent right?

You're not alone. In this video, I share my struggle as an Irishman, and review PlayHT's Voice Cloning Studio, a tool with a good reputation among my AI friends.

PlayHT is a text-to-speech AI tool that has a range of preset voices, and a tool for cloning your own voice.

With my Irish accent, and I’ve not had much success with AI voice tools like ElevenLabs, Descript or Heygen, so let’s find out if PlayHT can manage to clone my voice.

You can create a voice clone with just 30 seconds of audio - a significant time-saver for busy professionals like you, if it works.

PlayHT offer an instant AI clone and a high fidelity AI clone, we’ll have a look at the differences in the video, and review the instant cloning process so you can hear a real example of an AI voice clone and decide if it's a fit for you.

If you have a U.S. accent you will likely get much better results than I did.

Interesting, I tried this as well a while ago... I tried to clone my Mum's Irish (Golden) voice as she's in her 80s now and I want to preserve her voice and Irish 'Lilt' for my kids to hear when they are older (or their kids).

I was like you, it made an Irish 'kinda' accent but it wasn't anything like her. I've tried a couple but they are all terrible! Elevenlabs is the same, not very good for the accents. Great at cloning!

If you discover anything let me know
