Midwesty and kinda midatlanticy with some southern thrown in?
Like raised in Ohio, went to school in Bama or Florida, and has lived in Baltimore for a while now....
...Or am I just feeding AI?
Just sounds American to me, based on what I've seen on TV, but I couldn't tell you what region or state or any of that. Doesn't sound European to me.
It sounds Midwest/Canadian to me for the most part. Like someone who lives near a Midwest-Ontario border but there's also so unrecognizable inflections that seem maybe like AI or someone imitating an accent that isn't natural to them.
Dolly Parton esq twang, but sounds like she's english as a second language? I dunno america
Um. No. Casual middle-brow English with some weird emphases. The most noticable thing is choo for you anywhere she says "about you" or something similar. But that's not a regional thing in my experience.
Is this AI?
OP is a really weird account that seems obsessed with posting AI American linguistic videos
I’m noticing a few posters that have small obsessions where the same topic is posted a few varied ways, in short succession, and question if it’s a AI.
I remember one about currency and note conversion, there was another I think it was about ivory or dice, I can’t remember. Then another recently on leggings. I find it bizarre , could be humans but who makes 6 posts in 4 days on how you swap bank notes.
It's not deep southern. It sounds like someone from Pennsylvania who listens to country music.
Why is she just saying these random phrases and questions? Is there a joke that's going over my head?
Either it's someone trying to practice accents, or AI nonsense. I honestly can't tell but I'm leaning toward AI.
AI slop. I opened the link back up and it is dozens of 30-60 second clips of people with various distinctive accents speaking into a camera like these. All with a number for the video title. All with like 4 views. Some of the videos are much more obviously (poorly) AI generated, so it's safe to assume these are AI as well.
My guess this is some startup from a 3rd world country trying to create some AI video generator with the hook being that it can do accents really well. It very much reminds me of those guys who keep making YouTube videos "analyzing" various cartoons like the Simpsons, Avatar, and South Park America.
Sounds more like rural Minnesota?
Naw, man. this ain't minnesotan.
--'t you = tcha or tchu in the video. That's upper midwest or nearby Canada. Thus my suggestion for rural Minnesota, and I am sticking with it.
we don't really do the tcha thing following a d-sound, though. that's usually only reserved for hard t's "Don'tcha" as you used an example for, or the famous "yah, sure, y'betcha"
the real problem is lacking the elongated o's, and a's. (Minessota becomes Minesoootah,) and tag" (as in price tag) would become "price tahg"
it needs to be said that the accents depicted in Fargo were extreme and cartoonish. even rural parts, we're not quite that bad (especially with the 'tcha' sounds) - unless of course we're making fun of ourselves.
Personally, I think this is an AI synthesis and it's not actually anything specific; just a freaky mishmash.
ETA- Garison Keiler is probably the most minnesotan accent you'll hear. (enjoy some Guy Noir.) (alternatively, an interview, where he's not doing a character.
