MIT researchers have developed an impressive, albeit terrifying, artificial intelligence application that can figure out what you look like just by listening to your voice. In a recent paper titled'Speech2Face: Learning the Face Behind a Voice,' they detailed how the AI software can reconstruct faces after being supplied with various sound bites. To achieve this, the neural network was fed millions of educational clips from YouTube that featured more than 100,000 people. In a recent paper titled'Speech2Face: Learning the Face Behind a Voice,' researchers detailed how the AI software can reconstruct faces after being supplied with various sound bites'Our goal in this work is to study to what extent we can infer how a person looks from the way they talk,' researchers explained in the study, which was published on Arxiv, a publishing site for non-peer reviewed papers. 'Obviously, there is no one-to-one matching between faces and voices.
