What happened
On 2 October 2026, AI music generation platform Suno launched Speech, a voice generation feature now in public beta on web and mobile. According to The Verge, the feature generates vocals from a script or prompt and produces matching background music at the same time. It offers Simple and Advanced modes; Advanced mode lets users customise the script and adjust the AI voice's gender, speech style and variety across generations, with a maximum length of about 8 minutes and background music that can be switched off. On 3 October, The Decoder reported that the feature combines spoken text and matching background music into a single track, with users entering an idea or text and describing the desired voice and music style while the model generates vocals and score together.
