This portion of the chapter will focus on how to work with and deploy these custom models for use in your organization.
To build your augmented model, you will use the Speech Studio, which can be found at https://speech.microsoft.com/portal. After you have logged in with your Azure account, you will be presented with several options for working with various speech operations, including the following:
- Speech-to-text
- Text-to-speech
