TTS Arena: Benchmarking Text-to-Speech Models in the Wild

TTS Arena is useful only as a noise filter. Benchmarks are useless if the models don't translate to actual deployment quality in the wild. Honestly, we spend too much time chasing perfect speaker disentanglement metrics. The reality is, deploying a TTS model involves latency, audio fidelity constraints, and handling edge cases—stuff the benchmark doesn't capture. Focus on latency targets and real user feedback, not just the F0 scores.
