Summary

ElevenLabs has released an updated version of its speech synthesis technology, which now offers improved performance on longer text fragments due to changes in training methodologies. This update includes support for cased input, enhancing the model's ability to accurately read names and create pauses, as well as components necessary for infilling and extending the model's language support. Users are encouraged to test the enhancements via the usual panel, with the expectation of minor changes to cloned or default voices. Additionally, ElevenLabs has introduced Agent Workflows, a visual editor for designing complex conversation flows, and shared a customer success story about Avidio's use of AI voices for personalized video outreach.
