“Today we are launching SeamlessM4T, a new multimodal AI model that enables people speaking different languages to communicate more efficiently. The M4T can perform speech-to-text, text-to-speech, speech-to-speech, text-to-text translation, and speech recognition for up to 100 languages. Over time, we will integrate these AI advancements into translation and transcription on Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger, and Threads.”
Introducing SeamlessM4T, the first all-in-one, multilingual multimodal translation model.
This single model can perform tasks across speech-to-text, speech-to-speech, text-to-text translation & speech recognition for up to 100 languages depending on the task.
