Google DeepMind has released Gemini 3.8 Flash TTS and Gemini 3.8 Flash-Lite TTS, text-to-speech models that generate custom voices from natural language prompts and support line-by-line performance direction. The models top Hume AI's Voice Design Benchmark at 71.4 and claim first and second place on its Overall Quality Index.
GitHub has introduced local sandboxing in the GitHub Copilot app, a configurable feature that limits access to files, network resources, and credentials on a user's machine. The change targets risk reduction from unintended or unexpected command execution during agentic coding sessions.
A previously unknown AI provider has released Space Bunny Alpha, a stealth model on OpenRouter offering a 1M-token context window, adjustable reasoning effort, and multimodal input support. The model is free during its preview period, though its developer remains unnamed.
Meta's personal AI agent Muse attracted more than 500,000 users and 2 million prompts in its first week, topping the US App Store. Meta has acknowledged the product was 'heavily inspired' by open-source project OpenClaw, with nearly identical file names surfacing online.
Aion Labs has released Aion 3.5 Mini, a lower-cost version of its multi-model roleplaying system Aion 3.5. Built on the GLM model family, it offers a 262K token context window at $0.70 per 1M input tokens and $1.40 per 1M output tokens.
AionLabs has released Aion 3.5, a collaborative multi-model system for roleplaying and storytelling built on the GLM model family. It offers a 262K token context window at $3 per 1M input tokens and $6 per 1M output tokens.
NVIDIA released Nemotron 3 Diarization, a 100-million-parameter open-weight model that identifies who is speaking and when in audio conversations. It ranked #1 among 17 system configurations on Voice Arena's Diarization-Bench with a 14.72% diarization error rate, supporting up to eight speakers in both live and recorded audio.
Alibaba's Qwen team has released Qwen-Audio-3.1, a five-model lineup covering speech recognition, text-to-speech, and real-time voice interaction. Alongside the release, Alibaba cut API pricing by up to 95 percent for ASR, 85 percent for real-time models, and 70 percent for TTS.
Upstage has released Solar Mini 4, a compact mixture-of-experts model with 35B total parameters, 3B active parameters, and a 524K token context window. The model targets agentic workloads and is priced at $0.05 per 1M input tokens and $0.20 per 1M output tokens, a promotional 50% discount off standard rates.
