Reply to comment by ItsACaragor in I'm the head of video at France’s leading newspaper Le Monde. Our team recreated Charles De Gaulle's lost 1940 recording for France to resist the Nazis using historical sources and artificial intelligence. AMA about our investigation. by LeMonde_en
Yes so my question is how it compares in terms of believability vs what you could achieve with an actor?

As a native french speaker I can say that the speech they recreated is much much faithful to De Gaulle's actual way to speak than the actors who played him.
De Gaulle had a very special way to talk, he talked extremely slowly exagerating the pronunciation of every word and making long pauses. I never heard an actor actually doing him perfectly, in Le Monde's video they are basically spot on, I don't think anyone could tell it's not De Gaulle with any certitude.
