Yunfeng is a neural voice

In Azure Cognitive Services, a Neural voice refers to a voice generated using neural network technology. This means the Text-To-Speech system uses advanced machine learning models to create more natural, human-like speech compared to traditional methods.

Key characteristics of Neural voices:

• More expressive and realistic
• Better at handling pitch, tone, and rhythm variations
• Sounds closer to how humans naturally speak
