We just released unmute.sh 🔇🔊 It is a text LLM wrapper, based on in-house streaming ASR, TTS, semantic VAD to reduce latency. ⏱️ Unlike Moshi 🟢, Unmute 🔊 is turn base, but allows customization in two clicks🖱️: voice and prompt! Paper and open source coming soon.

We just open sourced a fine tuning codebase for Moshi!
Have you enjoyed talking to 🟢Moshi and dreamt of making your own speech to speech chat experience🧑🔬🤖? It's now possible with the moshi-finetune codebase! Plug your own dataset and change the voice/tone/personality of Moshi 💚🔌💿. An example after finetuning w/ only 20 hours of the DailyTalk dataset. 🧵
Just back from holidays, so a bit late, to announce MoshiVis, extending Moshi's multimodal capabilities to take in images 📷. Only 200M weights were added to plug a ViT through cross attention with gating 🖼️🔀🎤 Training relies on a mix of text only and text+audio synthetic data (~20k hours) 💽
Meet MoshiVis🎙️🖼️, the first open-source real-time speech model that can talk about images! It sees, understands, and talks about images — naturally, and out loud. This opens up new applications, from audio description for the visual impaired to visual access to information.
I'll start my presentation in 10 minutes, you can join in Zoom: concordia-ca.zoom.us/j/81541793947 See you there!

We just released Hibiki, a 🎙️-to-🔊 simultaneous translation model 🇫🇷🇬🇧 We leverage a large synthetic corpus synthesized from the text translation model MADLAD, and our own TTS + simple lag rule. Model is decoder only, runs at scale, even on device 📲 github.com/kyutai-labs/hibiki
Meet Hibiki, our simultaneous speech-to-speech translation model, currently supporting 🇫🇷➡️🇬🇧. Hibiki produces spoken and text translations of the input speech in real-time, while preserving the speaker’s voice and optimally adapting its pace based on the semantic content of the source speech. 🧵
