1. SpeechGPT: Empowering Large Language Models with Intrinsic Cross-Modal Conversational Abilities (2023 · 346 citations)
   Most systems that let large language models talk chain separate ASR and TTS modules around a text LLM. This design keeps the LLM's knowledge from reaching the speech modality, discards cues such as emotion and prosody, and lets errors pile up between stages. SpeechGPT addresses this by converting speech into discrete…
2. SpeechTokenizer: Unified Speech Tokenizer for Speech Large Language Models (2023 · 51 citations)
   Speech large language models rely on discrete tokens of two kinds. Semantic tokens, such as k-means units from HuBERT, follow linguistic content but discard voice traits. Acoustic tokens from neural codecs like EnCodec retain audio detail but correspond poorly to text. The authors first build SLMTokBench, a benchmark…
