Introducing Lightning V3 - it beats every model we tested against. ElevenLabs, Cartesia, OpenAI. Lightning sets a new SOTA with V3 in conversational text-to-speech. → Highest MOS score for conversational TTS at 3.9 → ~76% win rate vs gpt-4o-mini-tts on naturalness → 15 languages with mid-sentence code-switching → Built... from scratch for voice agents, not read-aloud Every TTS model sounds clean in a demo. You type a sentence and you get beautiful audio. Voice agents don't work that way. They stream. They're generating audio in real-time chunks with half the context missing. That's where everything breaks. A great reading voice and a great conversational voice are fundamentally different things. A conversational voice has to sound like it's thinking - with the pauses, the rhythm shifts, the reactions. It has to handle the way real people actually talk, including switching languages mid-sentence. That's what V3 does. V3.1 also ships voice cloning. 5 to 15 seconds of audio, no fine-tuning, production-grade clone across 15 languages. Blog link in the comments.show more

I built a service desk agent using ElevenLabs’ new Conversational AI Agents feature. Watch the video to see how responsive it is! Previously, I used ElevenLabs for cloning my voice and used my generated voice for narrations in some of my youtube videos. This feature takes elevenlabs' voice AI to a whole new level! It simplifies systems that used to require separate TTS (text-to-speech) and STT (speech-to-text) processes for both sides of the conversation. Now, it’s much simpler! Create your own agent here What will you create with this?

Text-to-speech is moving way too fast. Just a few days ago, I tweeted about PersonaPlex-7B, NVIDIA's new open source TTS ( And today, Qwen just open-sourced Qwen3-TTS 🤯 It’s a revolutionary text-to-speech model built for control. Not just about generating speech, but about shaping how it sounds directly from language. You can guide the pace, the tone, and the expressiveness straight from text, without touching audio graphs or hand-tuning parameters. That’s the real shift! What makes Qwen3-TTS stand out is how practical it already is: → voice cloning from just a few seconds of audio → voice creation without any reference sample → support for 10 languages out of the box → end-to-end latency down to ~97ms → works in both streaming and non-streaming setups The models come in two sizes (0.6B and 1.7B), so you can trade off quality and hardware cost depending on your setup. You can work with curated voices, designed voices, or cloned ones, and it integrates cleanly with vLLM for production use. It also ships as a simple Python package you can pip install. If you’re building real-time voice systems, this removes a lot of friction! 100% free and open source. I put the repo in the 🧵↓

Did xAI just mass-murder the entire voice AI industry? 🤯 Grok just launched two voice APIs. Speech-to-Text and Text-to-Speech. Built on the same stack powering Tesla cars and Starlink support. And priced at 10x cheaper than ElevenLabs. Speech-to-Text: $0.10/hr batch. $0.20/hr streaming. Text-to-Speech: $4.20 per million characters. 25+ languages. Real-time streaming. Speaker diarization. Already outperforming ElevenLabs, Deepgram, and AssemblyAI on word error rate. TTS ships with expressive tags like [laugh], [sigh], , . Voices that don't sound like robots reading a script. ElevenLabs spent years building a voice AI company. xAI built voice AI for cars and satellites.

Learn to build conversational AI voice agents in "Building AI Voice Agents for Production", created in collaboration with LiveKit and RealAvatar, and taught by dsa (Co-founder & CEO of LiveKit), Shayne (Developer Advocate, LiveKit), and Nedelina Teneva (Head of AI at RealAvatar, an AI Fund portfolio company). Voice agents combine speech and reasoning capabilities to enable real-time conversations. They're already being used to support customer service, to improve accessibility in healthcare, for entertainment applications, and for talk therapy. In this course, you’ll learn to build voice agents that listen, reason, and respond naturally. You’ll follow the architecture used to create the "AI Andrew" Avatar, a collaborative project between and RealAvatar that responds to users in what sounds like my voice. You’ll build a voice agent from scratch and deploy it to the cloud, enabling support for many simultaneous users. What you’ll learn: - Understand the fundamentals of voice agents, including key components like speech-to-text (STT), text-to-speech (TTS), and LLMs, and how latency is introduced at each layer. - Explore voice agent architectures and the trade-offs between modular pipelines and speech-to-speech APIs. - Explore how platforms like LiveKit mitigate latency issues with optimized networking infrastructure and low-latency communication protocols. - Learn how to connect client devices to voice agents using WebRTC—and why it outperforms HTTP and WebSocket for low-latency audio streaming. - Incorporate voice activity detection (VAD), end-of-turn detection, and context management to detect turns, handle interruptions, and manage conversational flow. - Understand the trade-offs between latency, quality, and cost in an example in which you build a voice agent and change its voice. - Equip your agent with metrics to measure latency at each stage of the voice pipeline and learn the key levers you can pull to make your agent faster and more responsive. The voice agents built in this course also incorporate voice technology from , a supporting contributor to the project. By the end of this course, you'll have learned the components of an AI voice agent pipeline, combined them into a system with low-latency communication, and deployed them on cloud infrastructure so it scales to many users. I’m looking forward to seeing what voice agents you build from this course! Please sign up here:

I joined OpenAI at the beginning of the year -- partly because I was excited about the possibility of better voice interaction with computers. So it was *especially* amazing to work with the team here on the gpt-4o model launch. It's hard to grok until you try it how big of a step forward this is for human/computer voice communication. It feels different -- it's obvious that the model understands you better than anything you've used before. This is my favorite demo of gpt-4o, it demonstrates not just good stt/tts, but actual conversational ability over full, realistic phone call. It's so obvious how useful this will be!

This is the fastest text-to-speech and speech-to-text API out there. It's under 250 ms to first-byte latency. That's what we need to deploy conversational AI applications everywhere! (I can't wait for the death of automated voice machines.) Look at the attached video. For the first time, I could have a conversation with an AI agent in real time without awkward pauses. This technology is Aura from Deepgram. It's the fastest text-to-speech option I've seen. Here is a GitHub repository with the demo in the video: You can use it to build a conversational AI application using natural voice. You'll need a Deepgram API Key and an OpenAI API Key. Thanks to Deepgram for giving me access to Aura and collaborating with me on this post. If you want to learn more about Aura, here is the announcement post:

NVIDIA just removed one of the biggest friction points in Voice AI. PersonaPlex-7B is an open-source, full-duplex conversational model. Free, open source (MIT), with open model weights on Hugging Face 🤗 Links to repo and weights in 🧵↓ The traditional ASR → LLM → TTS pipeline forces rigid turn-taking. It’s efficient, but it never feels natural. PersonaPlex-7B changes that. This NVIDIA model can listen and speak at the same time. It runs directly on continuous audio tokens with a dual-stream transformer, generating text and audio in parallel instead of passing control between components. That unlocks: → instant back-channel responses → interruptions that feel human → real conversational rhythm Persona control is fully zero-shot! If you’re building low-latency assistants or support agents, this is a big step forward 🔥

I've just tested the EVI 3 speech-to-speech model by Hume Hume AI, and this is the most realistic voice cloning I’ve heard. It doesn’t just clone the sound of your voice — it captures your tone, your speech patterns, your personality. Feels like your voice is thinking in real time. What’s wild is: — It’s not text-to-speech. It’s speech-to-speech. — You speak → it clones your voice + vibe — And it’s compatible with LLMs like Groq, Anthropic, Deepseek - Try talking to a voice clone: - Want more control? Customize it here: This changes how we’ll interact with AI voices. No more robotic replies — these sound human.

VoiceBox just did what everyone thought was impossible. It might have killed ElevenLabs overnight. No subscription. No cloud. No credits. Runs locally on your machine. Clones a voice from 3 seconds of audio. Powered by Qwen 3 TTS. Apache 2.0 license. Commercial use allowed. And your voice data never leaves your computer. For years, if you wanted high quality voice cloning, ElevenLabs was the default. Now there’s a free open-source alternative that sounds shockingly close. Plus it has a built-in multi-track editor, recording, transcription with Whisper, and a local API. This isn’t just another TTS tool. It’s a full voice production studio on your desktop. Open source AI is catching up fast. And this changes the game for creators and businesses. Would you trust the cloud with your voice… or keep it local? 👇

A voice agent powered by gpt-oss. Running locally on my macBook. Demo recorded in a Waymo with WiFi turned off. I'm still on my space game voice AI kick, obviously. Code link below. For conversational voice AI, you want to set the gpt-oss reasoning behavior to "low". (The default is "medium".) Notes on how to do that and a jinja template you can use are in the repo. The LLM in the demo video is the big, 120B version of gpt-oss. You can use the smaller, 20B model for this, of course. But OpenAI really did a cool thing here designing the 120B model to run in "just" 80GB of VRAM. And the llama.cpp mlx inference is fast: ~250ms TTFT. Running a big model on-device feels like a time warp into the future of AI.

Mistral just released Voxtral TTS, an open-weight voice model that tries to match ElevenLabs while keeping it free. A 3-billionn param model that fits on a laptop and runs 6X faster than real-time speech. It is split into 3 parts that handle different jobs. - The 3.4B part is the main language brain that understands the text and plans what should be spoken. - The 390M part turns that plan into speech features like rhythm, pronunciation, and tone. - The 300M part converts those speech features into the final compressed audio signal you can play. That split helps because each part only does the job it is best at, which can make the whole system faster and lighter than one giant model doing everything alone. Mistral claims about 90ms to first audio, about 6x faster than real-time speech output, about 3GB RAM after quantization, 9 languages, and voice copying from 5s of audio, even across languages. Its internal tests report 62.8% preference over ElevenLabs Flash on default voices and 69.9% on custom voices, but the bigger point is that companies can keep speech data on their own machines. IMO, enterprise buyers usually care most about control, cost, and latency, So this model should give it great push for voice-based AI apps/products.

What if your voice AI could interrupt you the moment it figured out your question - sometimes even before you finished asking it? Last week, I sat down with Neil, CEO of Gradium and co-founder of Kyutai , to talk about the future of speech-to-speech models and why he believes today's cascaded voice systems will soon look "archaic and brittle." Some highlights from our conversation: 🎯 How Kyutai built Moshi—a full duplex conversational AI with "negative latency"—in 6 months with just 4-6 people (while big tech teams had 10-20x the resources) 🧠 Why speech-to-speech models lose intelligence compared to their text counterparts (and what's being done about it) 📱 Pocket TTS: The first voice cloning model that runs on your phone's CPU—not GPU, CPU 🤖 Why robotics and spatial audio represent the next frontier (hint: current voice systems completely break in these environments) 👶 The efficiency gap: Babies learn to speak fluently from <5,000 hours of audio. Current models train on millions of hours. We're doing something wrong. My favorite vision from Neil? The first truly contrarian AI that interrupts you mid-sentence to tell you why you're wrong. Not just more natural conversation—but actually useful for testing ideas and playing devil's advocate. Full episode and detailed blog post linked in the comments 👇 What's your take - will speech-to-speech replace cascaded systems, or will modularity keep cascaded architectures dominant even as naturalness improves?

VoxCPM 2 just dropped by OpenBMB Only 2B-param open-source TTS (Text-to-Speech) model built for production-grade multilingual voice work. Apache-2.0 license, Can run on only 8GB VRAM. • Eliminates the "robotic" feel of traditional TTS, delivering prosody and emotional depth suitable for high-stakes professional environments like filmmaking, gaming, animation, and audiobooks. • 30-language multilingual: no language tag needed, just type in a supported language and generate directly. • Voice design: create a brand-new voice from a text description alone, like age, tone, pace, or emotion. No reference audio required. Describe the desired voice characteristics (gender, age, tone, emotion, pace …) in Control Instruction, and VoxCPM2 will craft a unique voice from your description alone. • Controllable cloning: clone from a short clip, then steer delivery style without losing the speaker’s core voice. • Ultimate cloning: use reference audio + transcript for continuation-style cloning that keeps the tiny vocal details. • 48kHz output: takes 16kHz reference audio and produces studio-quality speech without an external upsampler. • Real-time ready: around 0.3 RTF on RTX 4090, even lower with Nano-VLLM. • Commercial use: Apache-2.0 licensed. Developer-Friendly Infrastructure: - Native Torch Inference: Direct support for PyTorch-based workflows. - Training Flexibility: Supports both full-parameter and LoRA fine-tuning for specific domain adaptation. - Production Readiness: Compatible with voxcpm-nanovllm for large-scale, high-concurrency deployment.

OpenAI shipped a new speech-to-speech model today: gpt-realtime-2 This is the first speech-to-speech model good enough to use in my voice agents that do "real work." Or real play, for that matter. Here's gpt-realtime-2 as the brain of the ship AI in Gradient Bang. The voice-to-voice response and tool calling times here are unedited, so you can see exactly what the interaction with the model is like in an agent with a very complex system instruction and frequent tool calls. (I did clip out the subagent task execution segments, after gpt-realtime-2 starts a subagent via a tool call. Subagents in this config used gpt-5.2 "medium" effort.)
