Hey everyone, Nuked here! Today, we’re diving into some exciting tech news that everyone can get excited about.

Imagine generating 11 seconds of super quick audio right from your phone — sounds like sci-fi, right? Well, Stability AI just dropped Stable Audio Open Small, a stereo audio model that’s not only the fastest out there but also runs on your mobile device thanks to a partnership with chipmaker Arm.

This AI runs on 341 million parameters, specially optimized for Arm CPUs, making it perfect for creating short sound effects and musical snippets instantly. Unlike many other apps that rely on cloud servers, this one works offline, utilizing a training set of royalty-free music from Free Music Archive and Freesound, which means no copyright worries!

The catch? It’s mainly designed for quick, short clips, and it’s limited to prompts written in English. Don’t expect full vocals or high-quality songs yet—it’s more for fun sounds and riffs. Plus, its style varies and leans heavily on Western music, reflecting its training data.

As for usage, hobbyists and small businesses under $1 million can use it for free, but larger companies will need an enterprise license. Despite some management hurdles at Stability AI, including recent leadership changes and investor concerns, this release highlights their ongoing innovation in AI tools for creators.

So, whether you’re into creating quick sound effects or experimenting with AI-generated audio, this tool could be a game-changer for on-device AI audio. Keep an eye out—it’s just the beginning!
