Orpheus TTS
Canopy Labs has introduced Orpheus, a family of state-of-the-art speech large language models (LLMs) designed for human-level speech generation. These models are built on the Llama-3 architecture and are trained on over 100,000 hours of English speech data, enabling them to produce natural intonation, emotion, and rhythm that surpasses current state-of-the-art closed source models. Orpheus supports zero-shot voice cloning, allowing users to replicate voices without prior fine-tuning, and offers guided emotion and intonation control through simple tags. The models achieve low latency, with approximately 200ms streaming latency for real-time applications, reducible to around 100ms with input streaming. Canopy Labs has released both pre-trained and fine-tuned 3B-parameter models under the permissive Apache 2.0 license, with plans to release smaller models of 1B, 400M, and 150M parameters for use on resource-constrained devices.

Reka Flash 3
Reka Flash 3 is a 21-billion-parameter multimodal AI model developed by Reka AI, designed to excel in general chat, coding, instruction following, and function calling. It processes and reasons with text, images, video, and audio inputs, offering a compact, general-purpose solution for various applications. Trained from scratch on diverse datasets, including publicly accessible and synthetic data, Reka Flash 3 underwent instruction tuning on curated, high-quality data to optimize performance. The final training stage involved reinforcement learning using REINFORCE Leave One-Out (RLOO) with both model-based and rule-based rewards, enhancing its reasoning capabilities. With a context length of 32,000 tokens, Reka Flash 3 performs competitively with proprietary models like OpenAI's o1-mini, making it suitable for low-latency or on-device deployments. The model's full precision requires 39GB (fp16), but it can be compressed to as small as 11GB using 4-bit quantization.
