Oh waifu, next two days timeline gonna be filled with quote tweets by ML Bros now. How will my tweets be able to find space on people's TL? I am sorry I don't know enough ML to quote tweet this and earn Elon buxx. now we are homeress.

SeamlessM4T = incredible 👏 As a reminder, this also sits on top of one of the most comprehensive, cutting-edge translation/language tech as well:

I tried it with Japanese. The results are...extremely bad. It translates everything literally.

Google presents AudioPaLM: A Large Language Model That Can Speak and Listen paper page: introduce AudioPaLM, a large language model for speech understanding and generation. AudioPaLM fuses text-based and speech-based language models, PaLM-2 [Anil et al., 2023] and AudioLM [Borsos et al., 2022], into a unified multimodal architecture that can process and generate text and speech with applications including speech recognition and speech-to-speech translation. AudioPaLM inherits the capability to preserve paralinguistic information such as speaker identity and intonation from AudioLM and the linguistic knowledge present only in text large language models such as PaLM-2. We demonstrate that initializing AudioPaLM with the weights of a text-only large language model improves speech processing, successfully leveraging the larger quantity of text training data used in pretraining to assist with the speech tasks. The resulting model significantly outperforms existing systems for speech translation tasks and has the ability to perform zero-shot speech-to-text translation for many languages for which input/target language combinations were not seen in training. AudioPaLM also demonstrates features of audio language models, such as transferring a voice across languages based on a short spoken prompt.

In this demo, we show real-time voice translation between Indian languages. The user can speak in their preferred language, and the system translates and responds in another, preserving both meaning and natural delivery. Speech recognition, translation, and expressive text-to-speech work together seamlessly.

Today we released Meta Spirit LM — our first open source multimodal language model that freely mixes text and speech. Many existing AI voice experiences today use ASR to techniques to process speech before synthesizing with an LLM to generate text — but these approaches compromise the expressive aspects of speech. Using phonetic, pitch and tone tokens, Spirit LM models can overcome these limitations for both inputs and outputs to generate more natural sounding speech while also learning new tasks across ASR, TTS and speech classification. We hope that sharing this work will enable the research community to further new approaches for text and speech integration.

Voicebox: Text-Guided Multilingual Universal Speech Generation at Scale blog: Large-scale generative models such as GPT and DALL-E have revolutionized natural language processing and computer vision research. These models not only generate high fidelity text or image outputs, but are also generalists which can solve tasks not explicitly taught. In contrast, speech generative models are still primitive in terms of scale and task generalization. In this paper, we present Voicebox, the most versatile text-guided generative model for speech at scale. Voicebox is a non-autoregressive flow-matching model trained to infill speech, given audio context and text, trained on over 50K hours of speech that are neither filtered nor enhanced. Similar to GPT, Voicebox can perform many different tasks through in-context learning, but is more flexible as it can also condition on future context. Voicebox can be used for mono or cross-lingual zero-shot text-to-speech synthesis, noise removal, content editing, style conversion, and diverse sample generation. In particular, Voicebox outperforms the state-of-the-art zero-shot TTS model VALL-E on both intelligibility (5.9% vs 1.9% word error rates) and audio similarity (0.580 vs 0.681) while being up to 20 times faster.

We have officially launched Fun-ASR1.5, a major update to our end-to-end speech recognition model. This release focuses on three core pillars: broader language coverage, language switching, and production-ready text output. Key Features: • Multilingual Support: Supports high-accuracy recognition for 30 languages across Asia, Europe, and the Middle East within a single model. • Language Switching: Handles mixed-language speech (Code-Switching) natively, automatically detecting and transcribing language shifts without the need for manual tagging. • Professional Text Output: Delivers "ready-to-use" text with smart punctuation and automatic formatting for dates, numbers, and currencies. Fun-ASR1.5 bridges the gap between raw audio and professional documentation, providing a reliable engine for global communication.
