Google will update the text-to-speech engine Speech Services on Android devices, making voices sound clearer and more natural.
According to the developers, users will not have to do anything – the technology upgrade “will happen behind the scenes.” The update will “significantly improve” the quality of the generated speech, especially in terms of clarity and naturalness, they added.

421 voices in 67 languages will receive a new speech model and synthesizer. The current sound of American English will automatically change to a speech created using “more recent data”.
The developers also showed samples of the updated voices in other languages.
