AISummary of 6 articles

Zyphra releases ZONOS3-Mini, an open-source text-to-speech model with voice cloning and word-level control, with open weights on Hugging Face and code on GitHub.

Zyphra says the model runs on-device and in real time, including on a phone, because it activates only part of the model at each generation step and uses a new audio codec that cuts speech tokens from 774 to 150 per second.

The model is also available through Zyphra Inference and a browser playground. Zyphra offers 20 hours of free audio to people who comment "ZONOS" within 2 days of its announcement post.

SGLang says SGLang-Omni runs ZONOS3-Mini on day 0. SGLang describes the model as an 800M-parameter mixture-of-experts system that activates 80M parameters per token, and says first audio streams back in 57 ms on one H100.

    Zyphra's ZONOS3-Mini generates speech in real time using partial activation

    AIZyphra says ZONOS3-Mini activates only part of the model at each generation step. Its new audio codec reduces the tokens needed to represent speech from 774 to 150 per second, which the company says enables real-time generation across a wide range of hardware.

    Zyphra reports ZONOS3-Mini speech generation on Pixel 9 and MacBook Air

    AIZyphra says its ZONOS3-Mini speech model runs locally on a Pixel 9 phone, with time to first audio under 800 ms. On an M3 MacBook Air in the browser, time to first audio is under 450 ms, and both devices generate speech in real time. Zyphra says it trained the model on NVIDIA H100s and serves it on H200s through Zyphra Inference.
