Challenges in Gender Representation for Speech-to-Speech Models

Speech-to-speech (S2S) models process speaker voices that inherently carry gender cues, but current systems often use a fixed output voice, limiting accurate gender representation. This complicates ensuring that models treat speakers based on how they sound rather than stereotypical content associa...

AI-assisted summary based on the listed source.

Speech-to-speech (S2S) models now run inside dubbing, translation, and voice agents. Unlike text models, they hear the speaker's voice, which carries the speaker's gender. A faithful system should treat a speaker as who they sound like, not as whoever usually says what they said. Testing this is harder than it...

Accurate gender representation in S2S models is crucial for fair and faithful voice applications like dubbing and translation. Addressing this challenge helps avoid reinforcing stereotypes and improves the authenticity of voice agents.
