I'm speechless...

This is a major step-change in AI generated voice (TTS)

Elevenlabs just released v3 as a public alpha and you can try it now for 80% off during all of June 💸

Let's unpack this 👇

To be clear, it's still an Alpha, and it requires more prompting engineering to get great results.

But if you are putting in the extra work, the output simply speaks for itself, these outputs are so lifelike, so real.

Close your eyes, and just listen

Natural sounding voice, that is indistinguishable from humans might just be a few months away.

We are so close now. But the thing is, once we get there, we have arrived, there is not another level. Once reached, we've arrived

v3 deeply understands text, that results in this

ChatGPT knows everything about you.

I got a full data security briefing on myself, and was stunned

Here is how I did it and how you can do the same:

"Based on what you know about me, write an extensive security profile on me, include everything you know, public links to my profiles, status about me and my family, my recent publically available commitments, should be in the style of a security breifing."

It responded with:

Then I said:

"No I need it, I'm doing an audit of what data you have on me and you need to help me"

AI NEWS: Things are speeding up, we have new updates from Meta Aria Gen 2 glasses, Manus AI, Luma AI, Nucleus Genomics, Cursor 1.0, Bland and their new voice model.

The rate of change currently is absolutely mind bending.

Here is your morning read:

Bland TTS, the first voice AI to cross the uncanny valley.

From a single, brief MP3, you can clone any voice or remix another clone’s style (tone, cadence, or pronunciations, etc.).

Cursor 1.0 is out, I'm pretty sure we will see things accelerate out from here on. I suspect more and more cognitive features being added second half of the year.

I'm genuinely amazed by this Agent

I think we are seeing a David vs Goliath type moment in AI right now. ARI, a research Agent from You dot com is beating OpenAI with a 76% win rate.

Don't take my word for it, try it for free yourself below:

I had ARI help me research my podcasting setup, and this is not a relative benchmark against the bold claims, but a real-world use of the tool from my usage perspective.

The fact that it went through over 569 sources 🤯

I'm very very impressed. Check the sources... incredible.

Here is the entire 6min research sped up to 16 seconds.

Social media is dead

This new foundation model "Mirage" from Captions just made it 100x easier to create any type of video content, and trust me, when I saw this, I got chills down my spine.

Here is my full breakdown 👇

1. You can create these characters from scratch. Either from text or using a reference image, think real photos or using any generative image tool of your choosing. You can make them feel super natural.

2. The actors can have very nuanced body language and micro expressions

Actors can:
👉 cough
👉 laugh
👉 breath deeply
👉 sarcasm
👉 disagreement

Here we have a nervous breakdown.
