Traditional TTS produces mechanical, robotic-sounding voices with limited customization space but low resource usage; neural TTS relies on architectures such as Tacotron, WaveNet, and FastSpeech and delivers more natural audio quality but with higher GPU/CPU overhead.

FastSpeech / FastSpeech 2 is a non-autoregressive architecture that generates the entire spectrogram in parallel at once, solving Tacotron's problems of slow autoregressive decoding and skipped or repeated words, and is the default choice for many current open-source and commercial systems.
