Amazon launched a new AI voice model with the name of the Nova Sonic code

The Amazon American technology giant has launched a new AI Voice model with the NOVA SONIC code name, so that it marks a significant advanced step in the offering of its sound technology.

The purpose of Nova Sonic is to create a more expressive, realistic and natural voice. Although it increased in the previous Alexa greeting model, it was more realistic and responsive.

According to Amazon, Sonic’s performance about the benchmark of speed evaluation, speech recognition, and the quality of conversation is proportional to the Google and OpenAI Frontier voice model.

Although Amazon has not revealed all technical details, Nova Sonic is likely to utilize large-scale neural networks, perhaps with transformer-based architecture, similar to models such as Google Wavenet and Synthid or Vall-E Openai.

Alexa+, an upgraded Amazon digital voice assistant, is powered by the Nova Sonic component, according to Rohit Prasad, Amazon SVP and the Head of Scientists AGI.

Prasad claimed in an interview that Nova Sonic expanded Amazon’s skills with a “large orchestration system,” the technical framework that supported Alexa. According to Prasad, Nova Sonic is superior to AI’s voice model that competes in directing users’ requests to various fires.
