Auto tune...a computer program that automatically fixes incorrect pitches, allowing anyone to sound perfect....at the highest settings, it sounds like a robot singing...but you can apply the effect to any situation:

Most modern singers, pop tarts such as Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato use this program to get that perfect sound...live, they really don't sound like that good...but when they perform, if they are not actually lip syncing, then they are using this program. Many modern country artists also use this effect.

I think it is a truly horrible thing.

The baby video above is a perfect example of how even random pitches (like those found in ordinary speech) can be made into musical notes.
