Dia 1.6B TTS for NotebookLM Podcasts - Exploring Text-to-Speech Technology

This 13-minute tutorial video explores Dia, a new text-to-speech (TTS) system developed by Nari Labs, and demonstrates how it can be used to create podcasts similar to NotebookLM. Follow along as Sam Witteveen examines various articles about Dia from TechCrunch, VentureBeat, and Hacker News, before exploring the Nari Labs website and relevant research papers like SoundStorm and Parakeet. Learn about the Google TPU Research Cloud that supported this project, and watch a practical demonstration using Colab to implement the Dia 1.6B model available on Hugging Face. The video includes links to all necessary resources including the Colab notebook, Hugging Face repository, and GitHub page for those wanting to experiment with this TTS technology themselves.
