How does Hume Octave compare to other leading TTS models like Elevenlabs?

Octave, a state-of-the-art speech-language model, is designed specifically for text-to-speech applications, offering more natural and contextually appropriate speech than traditional TTS systems. In a blind evaluation study comparing Octave to other prominent models, it was found that Octave produced higher-quality speech, but its performance in handling long-form content remains to be seen.
