artificial production of human speech
Speech synthesis is the artificial creation of human speech using technology, typically through computers or software that convert text or other inputs into spoken words. It matters because it enables applications like voice assistants, accessibility tools for people with speech difficulties, and automated customer service systems that can communicate with people in a natural-sounding way.

Speech synthesis is the artificial production of human speech. A computer system used for this purpose is called a speech synthesizer, and can be implemented in software or hardware products. A text-to-speech (TTS) system converts normal language text into speech; other systems render symbolic linguistic representations like phonetic transcriptions into speech. The reverse process is speech recognition.
