It is the first of its kind to reach human parity on these benchmarks. Moreover, VALL-E 2 consistently synthesizes high-quality speech, even for sentences that are traditionally challenging due to their complexity or repetitive phrases https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/project/vall-e-x/va... &amp;gt; This page is for research demonstration purposes only.
