Ironically, one of the thing that makes written word by AI recognizable as AI is that it's too perfect. Too polished. Now think about speech patterns, they are way more than voice frequencies, tones and phonemes. One can say the same phrase gazillion different ways, with different pauses, cadence, inflections, intonations and even pitch. Humans speak "imperfectly." It's very contextual too: in many situations, we voice the same words very differently. Again, it's possible that I don't know what I'm talking about, but every example of machine talking that I've heard, I felt it was too mechanical, precisely because it was lacking the nuance of how real humans speak.
