## What it is
Official repository for Qwen-Audio, Alibaba Cloud's large audio-language model with pretrained and chat variants. It provides model weights, inference code, and evaluation for understanding speech, music, and environmental sounds.

## Use cases
- transcribe speech to text with a large audio model
- build a chatbot that understands audio input
- classify acoustic scenes and sound events
- analyze music or vocals with an LLM
- run audio question answering on GPU

## When to avoid
- you only need lightweight ASR with low latency
- you require a permissive license - the license is custom (NOASSERTION)
- you need a maintained project with frequent updates

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: speech-recognition, audio-processing, llm-inference, chatbot, machine-learning
- domain: speech-processing, large-language-models, artificial-intelligence
- platform: python
