“You’re probably sick of my voice. I’m sick of my voice.”

@voiceofkat For a long time I didn’t say a word. But … yes it’s me and yes I have an ongoing awesome relationship with the folks at TikTok. 🎉 The coolest part for me is watching the creativity & awesome content that people are putting out there using my voice. (Also oddly enough this is my first TikTok)

The voice on TikTok that turns your text into speech is actually a real person and not a robot.
Can you believe it?!
With the technologically advanced and savvy world we live in, many people, including us, just assumed that the voice behind the text-to-speech feature on TikTok was in fact AI generated.
But surprisingly that is not the case at all.
The voice behind the text-to-speech feature on TikTok is actually a radio host and voice over artist from Canada.
Her reveal video, which was earlier this year, received more than 43-million views and people were shook to find out she was real.

We love her PSA (Public Service Announcement) about how to type out the word "YEAH".
