Meta launches AI feature that lets creators dub their voices on Facebook and Instagram

Meta is giving creators a new way to break through language barriers on Facebook and Instagram. The company has begun rolling out an AI-powered voice translation tool worldwide, promising to help content travel further than ever update means that creators can now dub their videos into different languages while still sounding like themselves. Rather than replacing their voices with a generic narrator, Meta's system recreates their tone and style so that the end result feels authentic. In other words, the AI makes you sound like you, just in another isn't Meta's first mention of the feature. It was teased last year at the company's Connect developer conference, where it was initially tested on reels. Now, after a pilot run, the technology is being made widely available anywhere Meta AI is offered. At launch, the tool supports English-to-Spanish and Spanish-to-English translations, but Meta says more languages are on the way. For now, it's open to all public Instagram accounts and Facebook creators with over 1,000 followers. The way it works is simple. Before publishing a reel, creators will see an option labelled 'Translate your voice with Meta AI.' A quick toggle lets them turn on translations, and they can even choose to add lip-syncing so the dubbed version lines up neatly with their mouth movements. Once the reel is shared, the translated audio plays automatically for viewers, along with a small note indicating that Meta AI handled the creators can preview their dubbed reels before posting. If the translation doesn't quite hit the mark, they can disable it without affecting the original content. Viewers also get some control: if they'd rather not see translated clips in certain languages, they can adjust their settings the new voice tool, Meta is offering fresh analytics in the Insights panel. Creators will now be able to see how their views break down by language, giving them a clearer picture of where their audiences are growing. This could become especially useful as more languages are added over are some tips for getting the best results. Meta advises creators to face the camera, speak clearly, and avoid covering their mouths. Background noise should be minimal, and while the tool does allow up to two speakers in a video, they shouldn't talk over one another if they want the translations to work smoothly. In a separate update, Facebook creators can now upload as many as 20 of their own dubbed audio tracks to a reel. This sits within the 'Closed captions and translations' section of the Meta Business Suite and, unlike the AI option, works even after a video has gone chief Adam Mosseri put it, 'We know there are amazing creators whose audiences don't necessarily share the same language. If we can help connect them across those boundaries, we can help them grow.'The timing of this rollout is also telling. Meta is once again reshuffling its AI division, with a sharper focus on research, infrastructure, products, and the long-term goal of creators, though, the promise is straightforward: your reels can now talk to the world, literally.- EndsMust Watch

AR Murugadoss says SRK liked Madharasi pitch before Sivakarthikeyan

Acclaimed filmmaker AR Murugadoss is gearing up for the release of his next Tamil outing, 'Madharasi, headlined by Sivakarthikeyan, on September 5. But in a recent revelation, the director shared that the project almost took shape in Bollywood, with none other than Shah Rukh Khan in the to Galatta Plus, Murugadoss recalled, 'I didn't plan the whole film with Shah Rukh Khan, but I did pitch the character to him long back. Around seven or eight years ago, I narrated the idea, and he liked it.'advertisementAt that stage, Murugadoss explained, the film existed only as a character sketch rather than a full script. 'Back then, I only had the character, just an idea, not the full script. Cinematographer Ravi K Chandran had arranged a meeting with Shah Rukh. He was very sweet and said we'd do the film. But the delay stretched too long, and it never materialised.' The director's attempt at a Hindi version eventually fizzled out, partly due to the lack of further communication and his own mixed experiences in Bollywood, despite his blockbuster success with Aamir Khan's 'Ghajini' (2008).Now firmly rooted in Tamil cinema, 'Madharasi' boasts a strong ensemble cast featuring Rukmini Vasanth, Vidyut Jammwal, and Biju Menon alongside Sivakarthikeyan. Meanwhile, Shah Rukh Khan is currently shooting 'King' with daughter Suhana last directorial, 'Sikandar' with Salman Khan, failed to strike gold earlier this year, a disappointment he candidly attributes to unforeseen challenges.- EndsMust Watch
