If you thought AI was getting creepy already, then this one might tip you over the edge. Your iPhone can now learn and recreate your voice with an iOS 17 feature called Personal Voice, which "uses on-device machine learning," according to Apple.
Now, this feature actually has a really awesome intended use: to help people at risk of losing their voice completely. In a press release, Apple says this feature is "for users at risk of losing their ability to speak — such as those with a recent diagnosis of ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) or other conditions that can progressively impact speaking ability — Personal Voice is a simple and secure way to create a voice that sounds like them."
