What is "zero-shot" supposed to mean?

zero-shot is a single prompt (maybe with additional context in the form of files.)

few-shot is providing a few examples to steer the LLM

multi-shot is a longer cycle of prompts and refinement

I believe in this case it means that you do not need to provide other voice samples to get a good clone.

  • It means there is zero training involved in getting from voice sample to voice duplicate. There used to be models that take a voice sample, run 5 or 10 training iterations (which of course takes 10 mins, or a few hours if you have hardware as shitty as mine), and only then duplicate the voice.

    This you give the voice sample as part of the input, and immediately it tries to duplicate the voice.
