This is the official codebase for running the text to audio model, from Suno.ai.
The following is additional information about the models released here.
Bark is a series of three transformer models that turn text into audio.
| Model | Parameters | Attention | Output Vocab size |
|---|---|---|---|
| Text to semantic tokens | 80 M | Causal | 10,000 |
| Semantic to coarse tokens | 80 M | Causal | 2x 1,024 |
| Coarse to fine tokens | 80 M | Non-causal | 6x 1,024 |

We anticipate that this model's text to audio capabilities can be used to improve accessbility tools in a variety of languages. Straightforward improvements will allow models to run faster than realtime, rendering them useful for applications such as virtual assistants.
While we hope that this release will enable users to express their creativity and build applications that are a force for good, we acknowledge that any text to audio model has the potential for dual use. While it is not straightforward to voice clone known people with Bark, they can still be used for nefarious purposes. To further reduce the chances of unintended use of Bark, we also release a simple classifier to detect Bark-generated audio with high accuracy (see notebooks section of the main repository).
