AI voice startup Fish Audio completes $52 million seed round, led by Coreline Venture and others

Odaily Odaily News: AI voice generation startup Fish Audio announced the completion of a $52 million seed funding round, led by Coreline Ventures and Capital Today, with participation from 359 Capital, Parable, Play Time, and other institutions. The company was founded by former NVIDIA researcher Shijia Liao, who initially trained the first voice generation model on a single GPU and open-sourced it out of dissatisfaction with the lack of expressiveness in AI-generated voices on the market. Over the past year, Fish Audio has launched five models, including four voice generation models and one speech-to-text model. (TechCrunch)
