# forck.live — 27 May – 2 June 2024 > AI lab announcements, news reports and podcasts. forck.live follows what companies announce about their own products. Press may corroborate an official story; it never leads and never appears as an item of its own. A missing date stays missing. A title is the publisher's words — where a company does not publish in English, an English rendering is listed separately as `Title in English` and named as this site's translation, never as theirs. This file is one issue of the weekly archive: every confirmed first-party announcement of ISO week 2024-W22, 27 May – 2 June 2024, newest first. The window never moves, so this URL always names the same seven days — but a post published inside them and detected later is added when it arrives, so a closed week can still gain entries. Every entry is one first-party announcement, and carries the same eight fields in this order before any others: Company · Announced · Category · Coverage · Announcement · Group · Source · Record `Source` is the company's own page the announcement was traced to and `Record` is this site's page for it. Both are safe to cite. `Coverage` is a number of outlets, or `not counted` — which means this record reached no count of its own, never that nobody wrote about it. `Category` is this tracker's own analysis, and is authoritative wherever it is stated. `not stated` means either that nothing has analysed the post yet or that the analysis placed it outside this taxonomy; neither is a verdict about the announcement. `Announcement` is whether the post is news of something the company did, rather than a how-to, a customer story, a changelog listing or a staffing note. `Group` is which of this record's groups the entry falls in, carried on the entry itself so it holds where the groups are headings and where they are not. One of: `models`, `covered`, `announcements`, `routine`. Anything after `Record` is held detail that only some announcements carry. - This week's page: https://forck.live/week/2024-W22 - The current issue, and the catalogue of the other weeks: https://forck.live/briefing.md - Catalogue: https://forck.live/llms.txt ## Announcements ### Cartesia — Announcing Sonic: a low‑latency voice model for lifelike speech - Company: Cartesia (cartesia.ai) - Announced: 2024-05-31 - Category: new-model - Coverage: not counted - Announcement: yes - Group: models - Source: https://www.cartesia.ai/blog/sonic - Record: https://forck.live/items/8031-announcing-sonic-a-low-latency-voice-model-for-lifelike-speech - Subject: Sonic / Ink Cartesia released Sonic, a low-latency voice model that generates lifelike speech with a latency of 135ms, and includes a web playground and API. ### Replicate — Replicate Intelligence #2 - Company: Replicate (replicate.com) - Announced: 2024-05-31 - Category: not stated - Coverage: not counted - Announcement: no - Group: routine - Source: https://replicate.com/blog/replicate-intelligence-2024-05-31 - Record: https://forck.live/items/2536-replicate-intelligence-2 - Subject: Platform Replicate's weekly bulletin covers trending models, tools, and research, including the new SDXL-Flash image generation model, Nous Research's WorldSim, and research on scaling laws.
