How does Meta keep on winning?

It’s exciting to see the development of AI moving at a rapid pace Get ready for Octavia AI 🔥

soon on @huggingface ?

Could you make these tools into proper modules, preferably ones that install CLI scripts, like whisper does? Checking out a bunch of repositories and downloading model files, and setting PYTHONPATH manually isn't very user friendly...

Wrote about the implications and breakdown of it here, if anyone wants to dive in deeper:

Wow! This is truly amazing. Your Massively Multilingual Speech project is making great strides toward breaking language barriers. Can't wait to see the impact it has on multilingual communication! #AI #LanguageBarrier #Communication.

I suggest creating a demo page or an app to allow people who speak these languages to easily use the tool. Also, it would be beneficial to integrate it with the NLLB-200. @ylecun

Wow

Hot to test this? Is it public?

Massive congrats to Meta AI for the MMS project! Supporting 1100 languages... now if we can just work out how to say 'Congrats' in each one. Computer, start with Zulu... #AIProgress #LanguageLearning 🌐🔊
