WhisperSpeech is an open-source text-to-speech system created by “inverting” OpenAI’s Whisper, reusing its strengths as a semantic audio model to generate speech instead of only transcribing it. The project aims to be for speech what Stable Diffusion is for images: powerful, hackable, and safe for commercial use, with code under Apache-2.0/MIT and models trained only on properly licensed data. Its architecture follows a token-based, multi-stage pipeline inspired by AudioLM and SPEAR-TTS:...

...The repository includes Python APIs, sample scripts, ready-to-use voice presets, and demos hosted on Hugging Face Spaces and Google Colab so users can try it.

We introduce a language modeling approach for text to speech synthesis (TTS). Specifically, we train a neural codec language model (called VALL-E) using discrete codes derived from an off-the-shelf neural audio codec model, and regard TTS as a conditional language modeling task rather than continuous signal regression as in previous work. During the pre-training stage, we scale up the TTS training data to 60K hours of English speech which is hundreds of times larger than existing systems....
