Text-to-Speech
Text-to-Speech (TTS) is the technology that converts written text into synthesized human-like speech. It is a core component of AI applications involving audio output, accessibility, and interactive media.
Key Developments
Gemini Audio
Google DeepMind has introduced Gemini Audio, a new TTS model leveraging the gemini-25-flash API. This model focuses on advanced capabilities for generating diverse and expressive voice content.
- Custom Voice Generation: Allows users to create and control custom voices rather than relying solely on pre-set options.
- Expressive Control: Offers granular control over the tone, emotion, and pacing of the generated speech.
- Integration: Part of the broader Gemini ecosystem, enabling seamless integration with other Google AI services.
