This is cool and one of the applications of LLMs that I'm actually looking forward to: accent training when acquiring a new language, particularly hearing what you would sound like without an accent!

That said, I found the recording of Victor's speech after practicing with the recording of his own unaccented voice to be far less intelligible than his original recording.

Looking forward to seeing the developments in this particular application.

Fair point! When Victor tried to speed up to speak as fast as Coach Eliza, while it sounded somewhat less accented, a few parts of the phrase did get less intelligible. 10 minutes of practice is only a start after all.

Interesting to note that we're also developing a separate measure of intelligibility that will give a separate sense of how intelligible versus accented something is.
