Alice learned to read and read poetry like real actors

Yandex learned to collect and read iPhones.ru poems in the company’s press service.

It is enough to say: “Alice, tell me your poem,” and she will read her own poem with the necessary intonation and accents.

To train Alice to read with wording, professional actors read first. After this audio recording was loaded into the neural network responsible for voice synthesis, and she copied the intonation pattern and reproduced it in Alice’s speech.

Alice learned to write her own poems thanks to the Yandex language model from the YaLM family, she was taught on the verses of classics and contemporary poets.
