AuK Technical Report: An Open-Source Foundational Model for Speech Generation and Editing
We introduce AuK, an open-source foundational model that unifies speech generation and editing through a common interface of natural-language instructions and audio context. To support this broad capability set, we construct approximately 3.03 billion instruction--audio instances and 1.95 million hours of effective supervision across five task families: speech generation, content editing, enhancement and separation, paralinguistic editing, and acoustic editing. AuK combines a multimodal large language model for semantic conditioning, an VAE jointly trained on speech, general audio, and music f
From Scores to Evidence: Auditable Decisions Can Improve Speech Deepfake Detection
Speech deepfakes can mimic a speaker's voice convincingly enough to deceive listeners and automated systems. This has driven strong progress in speech deepfake detection, but most detectors still end with one score per utterance. That score is useful for ranking systems, yet it says little about why a borderline item should be trusted, deferred, or reviewed. Two utterances can fall in the same score band for different reasons, for example because passive and retrieval evidence disagree or because the keyed probe is unavailable. We ask whether the final decision can remain scalar without discar
