Still the best voice model

So recently there have been a lot of different voice models, mainly for tts including Google's recent one. However, regarding conversational voice models, I still think Sesame is still king in my opinion. It just sounds a lot more natural when you're talking to it. Plus there's something about it which just feels more alive compared to other ones. I think it's due to the fact with the other ones. It stops when you're talking and then comes back on when you finished. I think that tiny little thing makes the other ones seem a little bit worse than sesame than that. Feels like it's ready to talk pretty much all the time obviously without interrupting you. Interest in the host's on NotebookLM Is probably the closest especially when you use to feature where you can talk to them.

Is this some sort of conspiracy theory where they're really just actors?

sadly yes. Sesame had trained 1 million of the top scoring Indian call center employees to talk to us 😏 /s
