MisoTTS Emotive Speech Model

SMRTR summary

MisoTTS is a new 8-billion-parameter AI voice model that generates more natural and emotionally aware speech by reading both the text and the tone of a user's voice. Most existing text-to-speech models sound robotic because they ignore emotional cues and can't cover the full range of human speech sounds. MisoTTS solves this using a layered approach that creates an astronomically large vocabulary of possible sounds without requiring a bigger model.
