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.

Claude 3 beats GPT-4 on Aider's code editing benchmark β aider
Right, but it's certainly easier for people who might not even know what "API" stands for, and that's quite nifty. As far as self-hosted frontends go, I can personally recommend SillyTavern[1] in the browser, ChatterUI[2] on mobile, and ShellGPT[3] for CLI. LobeChat looks pretty cool, though! I'll definitely check it out.

Group chats vs online defined characters, token efficiency question
I don't think there is any enumeration for {{char}} macros. Here is some good discussion on the subject.
- SillyTavern 1.11.0 has been released
-
Is possible to run local voice chat agent? If yes what GPU do i Need with 500β¬ budget?
As for SillyTavern, you need the main SillyTavern frontend and SillyTavern-extras (for TTS, STT, etc.) They're pretty easy to install. SillyTavern connects to oobabooga and SillyTavern-extras via API.
-
What do you use to run your models?
Finally, no matter what backend I use, I need it to be compatible with my power-user frontend, SillyTavern. That way I always use the same UI, with the characters I created and extensions I want, e. g. web search, XTTS text-to-speech and Whisper speech recognition for real-time voice chat - and all of that local!
- SillyTavern 1.10.10 has been released

OpenVoice: Versatile Instant Voice Cloning
I use Tortoise TTS. It's slow, a little clunky, and sometimes the output gets downright weird. But it's the best quality-oriented TTS I've found that I can run locally.

My Deep Learning Rig
It was primarily being used to train TTS models (see https://github.com/neonbjb/tortoise-tts), which largely fit into a single GPUs memory. So, for data parallelism, x8 PCIe isn't that much of a concern.

PlayHT2.0: State-of-the-Art Generative Voice AI Model for Conversational Speech
Previously TortoiseTTS was associated with PlayHT in some way, although the exact connection is a bit vague [0].
From the descriptions here it sounds a lot like AudioLM / SPEAR TTS / some of Meta's recent multilingual TTS approaches, although those models are not open source, sounds like PlayHT's approach is in a similar spirit. The discussion of "mel tokens" is closer to what I would call the classic TTS pipeline in many ways... PlayHT has generally been kind of closed about what they used, would be interesting to know more.
I assume the key factor here is high quality, emotive audio with good data cleaning processes. Probably not even a lot of data, at least in the scale of "a lot" in speech, e.g. ASR (millions of hours) or TTS (hundreds to thousands). As opposed to some radically new architectural piece never before seen in the literature, there are lots of really nice tools for emotive and expressive TTS buried in recent years of publications.
Tacotron 2 is perfectly capable of this type of stuff as well, as shown by Dessa [1] a few years ago (this writeup is a nice intro to TTS concepts). With the limit largely being, at some point you haven't heard certain phonetic sounds before in a voice, and need to do something to get plausible outcomes for new voices.

Show HN: GdaΕsk AI β full stack AI voice chatbot (STT, LLM, TTS, auth, payments)
TorToiSe (https://github.com/neonbjb/tortoise-tts) produces the best quality speech of any freely available model. However, its long inference times makes it impractical for voice chatbots like Gdansk.
