Machine learning algorithms are being put through their paces in more ways than we can fathom, gradually asserting more power in the digital entertainment landscape. One application which doesn’t spring immediately to mind or sound particularly glamorous is dubbing, where applying artificial intelligence software to the dubbing process can dramatically and easily increase global reach and slash costs for content and service providers. For this reason, a press release from UK software firm Zoo Digital piqued our interest this week, announcing a grant from a UK Government-funded agency called Innovate UK, in partnership with the University of Sheffield. The project aims to build on “recent advances” in machine learning to streamline the dubbing process for TV and movie content. As…
