Audio Flamingo Next
Audio Flamingo Next is an open-weight NVIDIA audio-language research model. The successor to Audio Flamingo 3 improves speech, environmental-sound, and music reasoning and handles audio up to thirty minutes. Temporal Audio Chain-of-Thought grounds intermediate reasoning in timestamps. Instruct, thinking, and captioner checkpoints are variants of the same research release. The release supports research use under a non-commercial license. Descriptions of perceptual content are generated language and can misidentify events, speakers, or musical attributes.
