Meta is reportedly looking to acquire AI voice replicator PlayAI


Meta is in currently in acquisition talks with PlayAI, a California-based startup that provides its users with an AI voice cloning tool, according to Bloomberg.

While both companies refused to confirm their talks to Bloomberg, the potential purchase of an AI voice cloning tool doesn't sound out of left field for Meta based on its recent activities. In exchange, Scale AI's founder and CEO Alexandr Wang joined Meta and is believed to be heading its new Superintelligence lab. While its acquisition could lead to useful voice features for Meta's apps and websites, the company could also use the tool to make more life-like AI chatbots.
