- R · What Makes It Special
- Meta's Voicebox (June 16, 2023), a non-autoregressive speech generation model built on Flow Matching that learns to infill speech from audio context and text, trained on over 50,000 hours of public domain audiobooks in six languages; it handles zero-shot and cross-lingual text-to-speech, noise removal, content editing and style conversion, and beat VALL-E on zero-shot TTS (1.9% vs 5.9% word error rate) while running up to 20x faster. Meta did not release the model or code, citing misuse risks.
