#### Bark text-prompted generative audio model (CLI)

Bark is a transformer-based text-to-audio model that generates highly
realistic, multilingual speech as well as other audio (music, background
noise, simple sound effects). This snap provides the `bark` command-line
interface. Models (~2-3 GB) are downloaded from Hugging Face on first use.
This snap is not endorsed by Suno Inc.
