Show HN: ClearVoice TTS, SOTA voice cloning model running offline, in an iOS apphttps://apps.apple.com/ie/app/clearvoice-text-to-speech/id6798899505

This is the first app I am aware of that can run a voice model of this quality on iPhone or iPad. It uses 6GB of RAM at peak, so most modern Macs, and some iPhone and iPad models should work (I’ve tested on a 17 pro). The model used is OmniVoice, which is known mostly for its ability to generate quality tts in hundreds of languages. This probably isn’t the fastest implementation of OmniVoice on a Mac, but it’s got to be the easiest to run on macOS, and, as far as I know, the only existing implementation on iOS. Demo of it running on an M3 MacBook Air: https://x.com/RoryClear/status/2090…

Michael Polansky is training an AI model on skin that’s still alivehttps://techcrunch.com/2026/08/21/michael-polansky-is-training-an-ai-model-on-skin-thats-still-alive

Michael Polansky β€” better known publicly as Lady Gaga's partner and a former top deputy to Sean Parker β€” has quietly spent years building an AI-driven startup that keeps living human skin tissue alive for weeks outside the body to discover new skincare compounds, and is only now going public about it.

Nvidia just showed that the harness, not the AI model, is now the real herohttps://techcrunch.com/2026/08/21/nvidia-just-showed-that-the-harness-not-the-ai-model-is-now-the-real-hero

Nvidia research shows that AI agents can perform well, and not go off the deep end, through fine-tuning, even if the AI model isn't that great at the task.
