This is Lecture 24 of our series in prosody. For synthesized speech, proper prosody is not just nice-to-have, but essential for good intelligibility. We survey 40 years of work, including recent deep learning approaches whose output can be better than human speech for some purposes. Nevertheless, more work is needed to attain controllability, pragmatic expressiveness, and effectiveness for dialog applications. • 00:00 Prosody for Intelligibility • 01:48 Rule-Based Synthesizers • 02:44 Statistical Synthesis with Hidden Markov Models • 03:30 End-to-End Speech Synthesizers • 04:42 Machine Learning Process Overview • 05:33 Loss Functions and Synthesis Quality • 06:10 Variant Architectures • 06:53 Limitations of the State of the Art • 07:34 Beyond Text-to-Speech • 08:01 Toward Synthesis for Dialog Applications • 09:04 Toward Better Models through Disentanglement
