Ok, so I have a voice message from a person. How do I see the data or see if it was made by them or a AI. Or any AIs that can help me do that cuz I’m still learning all the programming stuff, etc. Can I do that is that possible. Or what data can I see from it. I need my OneHacks family help here ppl. . pleasee. Thanks a millon in advance!! Much πŸ’• love. ---

you can recognize some patterns to understand the difference between human or ai voice while hearing, if not able to send me dm i’ll post the results ---

Yes β€” it’s possible. You can pull metadata, check for AI/synthesis artifacts, and run the clip through detectors even if you’re still learning programming. 1. **What** **data** you **can** **actually** see **from** a **voice** **message**. ---

That was my first instinct as well: examine the metadata. Those who generate these types of messages for the purpose of deception seldom think to add legit metadata that you would expect to find. E.g. compare the recording date & time with the date & time that the message was received. If there is a big difference it is likely part of a pack that somebody is reusing on you. ---
