At 2.5 billion parameters, with improved MMDiT-X architecture and training methods, this model is designed to run “out of the box” on consumer hardware, striking a balance between quality and ease of customization. It is capable of generating images ranging between 0.25 and 2 megapixel resolution.

Whisper is a state-of-the-art model for automatic speech recognition (ASR) and speech translation, proposed in the paper "Robust Speech Recognition via Large-Scale Weak Supervision" by Alec Radford et al. from OpenAI. Trained on >5M hours of labeled data, Whisper demonstrates a strong ability to generalise to many datasets and domains in a zero-shot setting. Whisper large-v3-turbo is a finetuned version of a pruned Whisper large-v3. In other words, it's the exact same model, except that the number of decoding layers have reduced from 32 to 4. As a result, the model is way faster, at the expense of a minor quality degradation.

Whisper is a general-purpose speech recognition model. It is trained on a large dataset of diverse audio and is also a multi-task model that can perform multilingual speech recognition as well as speech translation and language identification.

Distil-Whisper was proposed in the paper Robust Knowledge Distillation via Large-Scale Pseudo Labelling. This is the third and final installment of the Distil-Whisper English series. It the knowledge distilled version of OpenAI's Whisper large-v3, the latest and most performant Whisper model to date. Compared to previous Distil-Whisper models, the distillation procedure for distil-large-v3 has been adapted to give superior long-form transcription accuracy with OpenAI's sequential long-form algorithm.

Text-to-Speech (TTS) technology converts written text into spoken words using advanced speech synthesis. TTS systems are used in applications like virtual assistants, accessibility tools for visually impaired users, and language learning software, enabling seamless human-computer interaction.

WizardLM-2 8x22B is Microsoft AI's most advanced Wizard model. It demonstrates highly competitive performance compared to those leading proprietary models.
