This looks (and sounds) amazing!
Via https://www.skype.com/en/blogs/2022-12-skype-truvoice/ :
"Today we are launching translation of Skype to Skype video calls in real-time, using your natural voice. This means that you can have a conversation with someone who speaks a different language, and the translation will happen automatically, in real time, as the conversation is taking place....
This is a huge step forward for Skype, as it* makes it possible for people who speak different languages to easily communicate* with each other. It also makes it easier to conduct meetings or interviews with partners who speak different languages, as you can now have a *conversation without the need for a translator*.
So, how does Skype's real-time translation feature work? It uses Artificial Intelligence to automatically detect the languages being spoken during a video call and translate them in real time. This is done using a combination of *speech recognition technology* and *natural language processing*, which are able to understand and interpret the spoken words and translate them into the desired language.
On top of that, if you activate the use of your natural voice, we will use AI to sample your words and tune the translation to sound like you, making the conversation more human.
Translations are available for a number of different languages, including English, Spanish, French, German, Chinese, and more."
