KLleon's digital human and dubbing solution

DIGITAL humans will soon populate the metaverse and virtual environments. The idea of digital humans evokes mixed feelings of hope and skepticism. Will it replace people's jobs or make work more productive? Eugene Ovcharenko, of Lucid Reality Labs, defines a digital human as "a variation of an artificial human, a 3D model of a created or captured human shape, with capabilities to mimic, imitate or even learn behavior patterns, seeming as lifelike as possible." Digital human creation technology is not new. Some of the large companies are Microsoft, Samsung, Tencent, Nvidia, Bar-Ilan University. You might have seen the Samsung #TeamGalaxy commercial featuring Lil Miquela, a digital influencer with over 3 million subscribers on Instagram. China and Korea introduced their own AI-powered news anchors.

When AI tech startup KLleon from South Korea took part in the "2022 CommunicAsia" at the Asia Tech x Singapore summit, it allowed visitors to experience its digital humans and multilingual dubbing solution. KLleon's digital human solution, "Klone" and auto-dubbing solution "Klling," caught my attention when I visited their exhibition booth. According to KLleon, this AI deep learning technology called Deep Human, only requires a single photo and 30 seconds of voice data to create a digital human in a faster and more efficient way than its competitors. Watching the demo version of "Klling," an auto-multilingual dubbing service, is fascinating. Klling dubs the original language of the video into five languages while maintaining the person's voice. The dubbing platform could change a person's lip motion in the video close to real time.
