About
Dessa is Block's speech-to-speech artificial intelligence model for conversational voice research and applications. It takes audio input and produces audio output directly, without converting speech into text as an intermediate step. Trained from scratch on human conversation rather than text, the model supports full-duplex interaction, listening and speaking at the same time, and runs locally on a MacBook Pro with an M4 Max chip or better. It captures conversational cues such as emotion, sarcasm, laughter, pauses, and turn-taking that can be lost in text-based pipelines. Dessa is intended for AI safety researchers and developers studying voice-model behavior, privacy, and real-time interaction. It is a speech model for research and development, not a general-purpose business application or hosted voice-agent platform.

About
Guide Labs is developing a new class of interpretable AI systems and foundation models that humans can reliably debug, trust, and understand. Our models are engineered to produce human-understandable factors for any output, provide reliable context citations, and specify which training data influences the generated output. This approach addresses issues in current AI systems, which often produce explanations unrelated to their outputs, are difficult to debug, and are challenging to control and align. The Guide Labs team comprises experts with over 20 years of experience in interpretable machine learning. We have developed the first interpretable generative diffusion model and large language model. We are rethinking the model architecture, loss function, and entire pipeline to constrain the model training process such that the models we get are more easily understandable, their errors easier to identify and fix, and easy to align.
