Who Is the Real Voice Behind Alexa?

You may be surprised to learn that Alexa’s voice does not come from a person at all. Instead, it was built from Natural Language Processing, which dissects speech into words, sounds, and ideas. This technology is responsible for Alexa’s sophisticated AI voice.

When you ask Alexa a question, your voice is recorded and sent to the Alexa Voice Service (AVS) over the internet. Then your audio is translated into text so a computer can analyze what you said. Then, AVS sends a command back to your device, telling Alexa how to respond in a matter of milliseconds.
