I tested AI voice clones on long audio: Cartesia held up with just 10 seconds of samples

The author tested AI voice tools by cloning their own voice to read a full tutorial script. Most tools drifted in tone after a few seconds, but Cartesia stayed consistent throughout: 10 seconds of voice samples suffice for a clone, and up to 60 seconds helps preserve accent. The clone reportedly sounds more natural than the author's own voice, and the whole process was recorded for others to try.
