Stability AI optimized its audio generation model to run on Arm chips

AI startup Stability AI has teamed up with chipmaker Arm to bring Stability's Stable Audio Open, an AI model that can generate audio including sound

Stable Audio Open running on Arm chips, which will be demoed at the Mobile World Congress conference in Barcelona this week, can generate a sound from a text description like, “Gentle ocean waves at sunset.” Stability says that it worked with Arm to optimize and “distill” Stable Audio Open, speeding up generation times by 30x. “As more and more professional creatives and businesses adopt generative AI to power their production pipeline, it’s important that our models and workflows are available everywhere for builders to build and creators to create,” Akkaraju said. Stability, the beleaguered firm behind the popular image generation model Stable Diffusion, raised new cash last year as investors including Eric Schmidt and Napster founder Sean Parker sought to turn the business around.
