Microsoft AI Releases VibeVoice-Realtime: A Lightweight Real‑Time Text-to-Speech Model Supporting Streaming Text Input and Robust Long-Form Speech Generation

⋅

Microsoft has released VibeVoice-Realtime-0.5B, a real time text to speech model that works with streaming text input and long form speech output, aimed at agent style applications and live data narration. The model can start producing audible speech in about 300 ms, which is critical when a language model is still generating the rest of its answer. Where VibeVoice Realtime Fits in the VibeVoice Stack? VibeVoice is a broader framework that focuses on next token diffusion over continuous […]

Author(s): Manash Pratim Originally published on Towards AI. There’s a moment every engineer dreads. The dashboards are green. The alerts are silent. Everything looks calm until it isn’t. One minute your logs are flowing normally. The next minute, the system collapses like a badly timed Jenga tower. Image generated using AIThe article discusses the author’s experience creating a small Python agent that monitors system logs in real-time, catching issues before traditional monitoring tools can trigger alerts. By focusing […]

America’s Children Are Unwell, Says NYT—School Choice Should be Part of the Solution.

Colleen Hroncich When millions of children struggle to sit still, focus, and conform to rigid classroom expectations, it’s become an epidemic of ADHD and other disorders. The New York Times is beginning to consider what should have been obvious all along: Maybe the problem isn’t the children. Others, including my colleague Kerry McDonald, have been raising these concerns for years. As Kerry notes, Boston College psychology Professor Peter Gray has described ADHD as a “failure to adapt to […]

Rare Earths Are Rare in the US Only Because We Choose To Export Environmental Challenges

Rare Earths Are Rare in the US Only Because We Choose To Export Environmental Challenges

⋅

As has been said by many commentators, rare earths are not particularly rare.  Via source, here is an estimate of their abundance in the Earth’s surface: Note by the way the Y-axis is logarithmic so small changes in vertical position can mean a factor of 10 or more difference in concentration.  But the rare earths are not unreasonably far off fairly common industrial metals like lead, nickel, copper, and molybdenum and well more common than gold, silver, and […]
