SANTA CLARA, Calif., April 27, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Resemble AI announced today that it has been named the Best Use of Voice Technology; Apps, dApps and Software, in the 27th Annual Webby Awards Internet Celebration. Hailed as the "Internet's highest honor" by The New York Times, The Webby Awards, presented by the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences (IADAS), is the leading international awards organization honoring excellence on the Internet.

IADAS, which nominates and selects The Webby Award Winners, is comprised of Internet industry experts including Questlove, DJ and Producer; Tan France, Fashion Designer, Television Personality & Author; Natalie Guzman, Co-President & CMO, Savage X Fenty; Werner Vogels CTO, Amazon; Roxanne Gay, Host, The Roxanne Gay Agenda; Quinta Brunson, Writer, Director and Actor; Ziwe Fumudoh, Comedian and Writer; Reshma Saujani, Founder, Girls Who Code; LeVar Burton, Actor, Podcaster and TV Host; Andy Slavit, Host, In The Bubble; Takashi Murakami, Artist; Samantha Bee, Comedian; and Tracy Chou, Founder & CEO, Block Party.

Resemble AI used 3 minutes and 12 seconds of Andy Warhol's original voice recordings from the 1970s and 80s to produce synthetic voice narration for The Andy Warhol Diaries docu-series on Netflix, directed by Andrew Rossi. Using Resemble AI's generative voice technology, Andy Warhol's voice was recreated to recite his own words from the diaries, creating an immersive six-part documentary on the artist's life. The team made adjustments for emotion and pitch to the AI output of Andy Warhol's voice, and added human-like imperfections using reference audio clips of another speaker, as seen in this video about how Resemble AI's Style Transfer works.

"Resemble AI has set the standard for innovation and creativity on the Internet," said Claire Graves, Executive Director of The Webby Awards. "This award is a testament to the skill, ingenuity, and vision of its creators."

"It has been an incredible year for generative AI and we're honored to be a part of its evolution," says Resemble AI founder & CEO Zohaib Ahmed. "We continue to be amazed at how our customers reimagine what's possible in entertainment, gaming, advertising, hospitality and more."

While Resemble AI is redefining the creative process, consent is a requirement for all projects and transparency is maintained throughout the process, as seen in this video about how Resemble AI voice cloning works.
