Reply to comment by Maxco_ 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
It’s explained in the short video.
They had three different written versions of the speech from three different sources but no actual recording to know which is the actual one.
They then found a guy who had access to Swiss military archives and apparently Switzerland kept extensive transcriptions of radio broadcasts in their archives and they had a very thorough transcription of the speech in swiss german. They translated it and compared it to the three other french versions they had to make what was most likely a very close transcription.
