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.
it seems to be the next wave of marketing: “our stuff is just so good it would be dangerous to release”
“Our tech is so powerful that it’s dangerous!”
“Ok, seems like we will have to push for more regulations into laws then”
“No, wait!”
