Creating a real human-like voice has been a challenge for the longest time. Even though websites are available online that transform texts into speech - that allows you to adjust it using settings and make it sound however you want. Yet still you easily distinguish it as a machine-generated voice and not a real human voice. Advancements are being made in this technological field to improve text-to-speech quality and make it more real-life-like. However, everything is about to change now with this new research by Meta.
Meet Audiobox, an AI Research by Meta that allows anyone to make sounds and voice with just simple ideas. Audiobox by Meta is basically an audio generator that can generate sound effects and voices for you using voice inputs and natural language text prompts input. You can create any custom sounds for a wide range of use cases making it very desirable for content creators and even studio houses. Meta has been kind enough to let us play and create with Audiobox models using demos which will we check out together.
Audiobox lets you play and experiment with its series of interactive demos individually to help you understand the unique capabilities of the tool. Audiobox also allows you to have fun and express yourself creatively through original audio stories. You can easily download the audio in a usable format.
