Meta announced a new AI model called Voicebox yesterday, one it says is the most versatile yet for speech generation, but it’s not releasing it yet: The model is still only a research project, but Meta says can generate speech in six languages from samples as short as two seconds and could be used for “natural, authentic” translation in the future, among other things.
Translation: Zuckerbot wants to generate some noise and there’s nothing better to do that than AI doom and gloom.
Or have it regulated so much that free alternatives cannot exist.
