Create a Personal Voice on Mac
If you’re at risk of losing your ability to speak, you can use Personal Voice on Mac to create a synthesized voice that sounds like you and speaks what you type using Live Speech. See Have what you type spoken out loud.
Note: Personal Voice is available only on Mac computers with Apple silicon, and is not available in all languages. Personal Voice can be used only with Live Speech and with third-party apps that you allow, such as Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) apps. You can use Personal Voice only to create a voice that sounds like you on device, using your own voice, and for your own personal, noncommercial use. See the Apple Support article Create a Personal Voice on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
