Description

Conversation Service Server Using AI Celebrity Voice and Method to Control the Server The present invention relates to a conversation service server using an online celebrity AI voice and a method for controlling the server, which generates the voices of celebrities using AI and provides a conversation service using the generated voice, thereby enabling the provision of a user-customized conversation service using the AI voice of a celebrity desired by the user. AI (Artificial Intelligence) refers to technology that enables computers or machines to learn and solve problems by mimicking human intelligence. AI includes technologies such as machine learning, deep learning, and natural language processing, which can analyze data and learn patterns to make predictions or solve problems, and are being utilized in various fields. Representative examples include smart home technology that controls and manages smart home devices, personalized recommendation systems that analyze users' viewing history on streaming services like Netflix or YouTube to recommend personalized content, and autonomous vehicles. In addition, algorithms are being utilized in various fields such as healthcare, customer service, finance, education, and smart cities. Recently, technologies using AI to generate or modulate the voices of celebrities have been utilized. This allows for the creation of the voices of various celebrities and famous people, and is being provided in various forms, such as allowing users to modulate their own voices into those of celebrities to participate in games or chats. However, with the rapid advancement of AI technology, the indiscriminate use of AI programs to generate and utilize celebrities' voices on online networks has sparked significant controversy and ultimately led to legal issues. Above all, the celebrities themselves are suffering not only psychological damage but also the reality that they are unable to receive copyright protection for their voices due to voice theft.
