Meta releases AI 'SAM Audio' that can separate only the desired sound from video and audio containing various sounds

Meta has released SAM Audio , an AI for audio separation. SAM Audio can be used to input audio and video, allowing you to perform operations such as extracting specific sounds via text, extracting audio from a specific subject in a video, and extracting sounds that are heard at specific times in a video.

SAM Audio can input not only audio but also video. If you want to extract only the guitar sound from a video recording of a music session, enter the word 'guitar' in the text.

This will allow you to isolate just the guitar sound in the video.

You can also click on a subject in the video to extract only the sound that the subject is making. Even if the video file contains a mixture of human voices and train sounds, you can click on a person and extract only the sound that they are speaking.

You can also extract bird sounds from the entire video by selecting only a portion of the sound in the video that is a bird song. Meta calls this 'Span prompts.'

Meta claims that SAM Audio has higher performance than other voice separation AIs.
