A Closer Look at Phonon TTS. Launching High-Quality On-Device Speech That Tops the Benchmarks.

Phonon, a small text-to-speech model that runs entirely on the user's device without requiring internet access, has been released with support for English, French, German, Spanish, and Portuguese. Built on the Pocket TTS lineage using flow matching, Phonon achieves high-quality audio in compact sizes (65 MB and 75 MB), with the 31m version licensed under Apache 2.0 for commercial use. It excels in intelligibility and speed, ranking first in German and Spanish on Hugging Face's Open TTS Leaderboard and leading in CPU streaming benchmarks. The model supports voice cloning, custom voices via Gradium Studio, and integrates with Hugging Face Transformers. It is available in multiple formats and backends, including WebAssembly, GPU, and NPU, enabling deployment across phones, laptops, single-board computers, and browsers. Over 200,000 downloads were recorded in its first two weeks, with active developer adoption through tools like ExecuTorch, Micdrop, and Spaces. Future developments include support for additional languages, smaller models, and custom vocabulary fine-tuning.

Faster Retrieval for Better, More Efficient RAG

Maximum inner product search (MIPS) sits at the core of recommendation systems, search, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). Given a query vector, MIPS systems search within a database of millions of candidate key vectors for the one that best matches the query. The original data point associated with that best-matching key is then used to handle the query: in RAG, the document that is best suited to answer the question is typically prefixed to the query. As the number of keys grows to millions and vector dimensions reach thousands, the computational cost of running an exhaustive…

Use decision models with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Evaluations

Some agent-evaluation questions are narrow and repeatable, and decision models answer exactly that kind of question. This post shows how to connect two decision models, Jev and Strands Decider, to Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Evaluations through code-based evaluators, and how to validate a decision-model check before you gate a release on it.

Qwen2.5-Coder: Code More, Learn More!

GITHUB HUGGING FACE MODELSCOPE DEMO DISCORD Introduction In early April, we introduced CodeQwen1.5, which garnered significant attention from the community. Since then, we have been working to enhance the coding model. Today, we are excited to announce the release of the next generation of open-source coding models, Qwen2.5-Coder, and officially rename CodeQwen to Qwen-Coder. We think “Coder” is more human-like and agile, reflecting our vision of it becoming a true coding partner in the future.

Generalizing an LLM from 8k to 1M Context using Qwen-Agent

We’ve created an agent using Qwen2 models with an 8k context size to understand documents with 1M tokens, surpassing RAG and native long-context models. This agent was also used to generate data for training new long-context Qwen models.
