Voice Cloning Preserves Identity for People Losing Speech to MND

At ElevenLabs’ Warsaw summit, Gabi Leibowitz argued that voice cloning can do more than replace lost speech with functional text-to-speech: it can preserve the vocal traits that make people recognizable to themselves and others. The case was told through Irene Perrin, a former history teacher living with motor neuron disease, who uses an ElevenLabs-cloned voice to continue volunteering at St George’s Chapel and says the technology has given back part of the identity the disease took away.
