Yes, I think that consumer-level state-of-the-art speech synthesis is still pretty far from acceptable. Amazon Polly doesn't sounds too great and presumably that should have more than enough big data to leverage and cloud computign to work with.

Either we're just not there yet technologically (hard to believe), or there isn't a will to make good speech synthesis available to commoners.
- danuker 5y agoI find these voices much more intelligible than say, Stephen Hawking's TTS.
- inside_out_life 5y agoSome of the Amazon's voices sound amazing to me, I've actually tested few on them and people couldn't tell they're synthetic. Watson's voices are nice too. (AFAIK Amazon bought Polish company IVONA for their Polly TTS system, which was long regarded to be one of the best)
