Facebook AI has developed Generative Spoken Language Model (GSLM), an NLP model that eliminates the dependence on large text data sets for natural language processing applications. GSLM is based on cutting-edge representation learning methods and can work with raw audio signals, without any labels or written words as input. This breakthrough opens up a world of possibilities in terms of creating textless NLP applications for virtually any spoken language, even those that lack significant written content. With this tool, developers are now able to develop powerful new applications such as sentiment analysis, translation, information retrieval, inferences and summarization using only sound recordings instead of relying on pre-existing texts.
