arXiv:2603. 10827v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Speech-aware large language models (LLMs) can accept speech inputs, yet their training objectives largely emphasize linguistic content or specific fields such as emotions or the speaker's gender, leaving it unclear whether they encode speaker identity.

arXiv:2606. 08678v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sophisticated generative speech technology can undermined the reliability of voice biometrics.

arXiv:2607. 05276v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speaker embeddings, or x-vectors, are widely used to represent speaker identity and speaker-related attributes, but existing embedding extractors are typically descriptive rather than generative: they map an observed speech segment to an x-vector, which is then used for downstream applications.

arXiv:2603. 10725v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The modern generative audio models can be used by an adversary in an unlawful manner, specifically, to impersonate other people to gain access to private information.
