Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

ESpeak-ng: speech synthesizer with more than one hundred languages and accents
As I understand it DeepSpeech is no longer actively maintained by Mozilla: https://github.com/mozilla/DeepSpeech/issues/3693
For Text To Speech, I've found Piper TTS useful (for situations where "quality"=="realistic"/"natual"): https://github.com/rhasspy/piper
For Speech to Text (which AIUI DeepSpeech provided), I've had some success with Vosk: https://github.com/alphacep/vosk-api

Looking to recreate a cool AI assistant project with free tools
- [DeepSpeech](https://github.com/mozilla/DeepSpeech) rather than Whisper for offline speech-to-text
I came across a very interesting [project]( (4) Mckay Wrigley on Twitter: "My goal is to (hopefully!) add my house to the dataset over time so that I have an indoor assistant with knowledge of my surroundings. It’s basically just a slow process of building a good enough dataset. I hacked this together for 2 reasons: 1) It was fun, and I wanted to…" / X ) made by Mckay Wrigley and I was wondering what's the easiest way to implement it using free, open-source software. Here's what he used originally, followed by some open source candidates I'm considering but would love feedback and advice before starting: Original Tools: - YoloV8 does the heavy lifting with the object detection - OpenAI Whisper handles voice - GPT-4 handles the “AI” - Google Custom Search Engine handles web browsing - MacOS/iOS handles streaming the video from my iPhone to my Mac - Python for the rest Open Source Alternatives: - [ OpenCV](https://opencv.org/) instead of YoloV8 for computer vision and object detection - Replacing GPT-4 is still a challenge as I know there are some good open-source LLms like Llama 2, but I don't know how to apply this in the code perhaps in the form of api - [DeepSpeech](https://github.com/mozilla/DeepSpeech) rather than Whisper for offline speech-to-text - [Coqui TTS](https://github.com/coqui-ai/TTS) instead of Whisper for text-to-speech - Browser automation with [Selenium](https://www.selenium.dev/) instead of Google Custom Search - Stream video from phone via RTSP instead of iOS integration - Python for rest of code I'm new to working with tools like OpenCV, DeepSpeech, etc so would love any advice on the best way to replicate the original project in an open source way before I dive in. Are there any good guides or better resources out there? What are some pitfalls to avoid? Any help is much appreciated!

Are there any secure and free auto transcription software ?
If you're not afraid to get a little technical, you could take a look at mozilla/DeepSpeech (installation & usage docs here).

Web Speech API is (still) broken on Linux circa 2023
There is a lot of TTS and SST development going on (https://github.com/mozilla/TTS; https://github.com/mozilla/DeepSpeech; https://github.com/common-voice/common-voice). That is the only way they work: Contributions from the wild.

Ask HN: Open-source, local Text-to-Speech (TTS) generators
I just noticed that https://coqui.ai/ is "Shutting down".
I'm building a web app (React / Django) which takes a list of affirmations & goals (in Markdown files), puts them into a database (SQlite), and uses voice synthesis to create voice audio files of the phrases. These are combined with a relaxed backing track (ffmpeg), made into playlists of 10-20 phrases (randomly sampled, or according to a theme: "mind" "body" "soul") and then play automatically in the morning & evening (cron). This allows you to persistently hear & vocalize your own goals & good vibes over time.
I had been planning to use Coqui TTS as the local text-to-speech engine, but with this cancellation, I'd love to hear from the community what is a great open-source, local text-to-speech engine?
Generally, I learn both the highest quality commercially available technology (example: ElevenLabs), and also the best open-source equivalent. Would love to hear suggestions & perspectives on this. What voice synth tools are you investing your time into learning & building with?

OpenAI deems its voice cloning tool too risky for general release
lol this marketing technique is getting very old. https://github.com/coqui-ai/TTS is already amazing and open source.

What things are happening in ML that we can't hear oer the din of LLMs?
Not sure how relevant this is but note that Coqui TTS (the realistic TTS) has already shut down

Base TTS (Amazon): The largest text-to-speech model to-date
I've used coqui.ai's TTS models[0] and library[1] to great success. I was able to get cloned voice to be rendered in about 80% of the audio clip length, and I believe you can also stream the response. Do note the model license for XTTS, it is one they wrote themselves that has some restrictions.

Coqui.ai Is Shutting Down
My only exposure to Coqui was their text to speech software. If I remember correctly the website was a commercialized service with TTS and probably some other related things. I hope the software work continues in the open.

Hello guys, any selfhosted alternative to eleven labs?

Demo of Anagnorisis - completely local recommendation system powered by Llama 2. Radio mode. Work in progress.
"tts_models/multilingual/multi-dataset/xtts_v2" model from https://github.com/coqui-ai/TTS. It gives pretty good results and works with references, so it's pretty easy to change the voice. By the way the source code of the project is open: https://github.com/volotat/Anagnorisis but be ready, the code is pretty raw for now.
