There is no mention of a new API specifically for text-to-speech in the provided context from WWDC. However, there are references to improvements in speech synthesis and related technologies:
-
Speech Synthesis API: In the session "Optimize for the spatial web," it is mentioned that you can use the speech synthesis API to announce text out loud, such as announcing a final score in a game. This API allows you to build speech synthesis utterance objects with the text you want to be spoken.
-
Siri Improvements: In the session "Bring your app to Siri," there are improvements to Siri's natural language processing and speech capabilities, making Siri sound more natural and contextually relevant.
If you are interested in these areas, you might want to explore the sessions "Optimize for the spatial web" and "Bring your app to Siri" for more details on speech synthesis and Siri's enhancements.
