TL;DR

  • Lure 0.6B can create expressive English speech from a short voice sample and transcript, with optional directions such as how to deliver a line. [1]
  • d3-ultra can make decisions about text, images, and video, including answering yes-or-no questions, scoring, and locating or tracking objects. [2]
  • App Studio turns plain-language descriptions, brand materials, and files into hosted creative apps. [12]
  • Carbon-X is an open model for researchers working with DNA sequences and natural-language prompts. [5]

Create expressive speech from a short voice sample

Lure 0.6B turns text into English speech and can clone a voice using a 3–12 second reference clip and its transcript. It supports streaming audio, sound tags such as sighs and laughter, and optional directions for how the speech should sound. [1] That could help people making voice content create a performance in a supplied voice without recording every line. The model is available through the web, an API, and open weights. [1]

A model that can classify, score, or track what it sees

d3-ultra accepts text or structured questions, optionally with images or video, and returns answers with probabilities rather than writing a free-form response. It can choose among options, answer yes-or-no questions, score against criteria, locate objects in images, and track them in video. [2] This is aimed at developers building apps that need an AI to make a specific decision—for example, identifying an object or routing an input—rather than hold a conversation. It is available on the web and through an API, with open weights. [2]

Build and host a creative app from a description

App Studio builds creative apps from plain-language descriptions, using Runway’s models along with a user’s brand materials and files. It also hosts the apps it creates. [12] It may suit people who want a custom creative tool without building and hosting one from scratch. [12]

An open model for working with DNA and language

Carbon-X is an open model trained on DNA sequences and natural-language text. Researchers can prompt it with DNA and ask it to respond in English, DNA, or both, for tasks such as examining sequence features, predicting the effects of variants, or predicting the next DNA base. [5] It is intended for researchers who want to run DNA-analysis experiments on their own infrastructure. [5]

Also on the radar

  • LBS-27B inspects image regions adaptively and is intended for visual question answering and locating interface elements; a client must carry out its image-cropping actions. [3]
  • Nemotron-3.5-Embed-8B-BF16 converts text queries and text or image documents into vectors for multilingual and multimodal search and retrieval. [4]
