LLaSA is a newly developed framework for speech synthesis that utilizes a single-layer vector quantizer (VQ) codec paired with a Transformer architecture. This innovative design allows LLaSA to effectively integrate with standard large language models (LLMs) like LLaMA, suggesting significant advances in the field of speech synthesis. The potential for integration into platforms like Open WebUI excites users and indicates a growing interest in enhancing interactive technology with more natural-sounding speech capabilities.
