Home Assistant’s Year of the Voice – Chapter 2
The most exciting thing about Home Assistant's "Year of the Voice", for me, is that it is apparently enabling/supporting @synesthesiam's continued phenomenal contributions to the FLOSS off-line voice synthesis space.
The quality, variety & diversity of voices that synesthesiam's "Larynx" TTS project (https://github.com/rhasspy/larynx/) made available, completely transformed the Free/Open Source Text To Speech landscape.
In addition "OpenTTS" (https://github.com/synesthesiam/opentts) provided a common API for interacting with multiple FLOSS TTS projects which showed great promise for actually enabling "standing on the shoulders of" rather than re-inventing the same basic functionality every time.
The new "Piper" TTS project mentioned in the article is the apparent successor to Larynx and, along with the accompanying LibriTTS/LibriVox-based voice models, brings to FLOSS TTS something it's never had before:
* Too many voices! :)
Seriously, the current LibriTTS voice model version has 900+ voices (of varying quality levels), how do you even navigate that many?![0]
And that's not even considering the even higher quality single speaker models based on other audio recording sources.
Offline TTS while immensely valuable for individuals, doesn't seem to be attractive domain for most commercial entities due to lack of lock-in/telemetry opportunities so I was concerned that we might end up missing out on further valuable contributions from synesthesiam's specialised skills & experience due to financial realities & the human need for food. :)
I'm glad we instead get to see what happens next.

Larynx!

Ask HN: Are there any good open source Text-to-Speech tools?
I've had good results with https://github.com/rhasspy/larynx
-
Recommend a Text to Speech tool ?
Larynx is a really good text-to-speech engine

Klipper on android
I was able to install 3.7 following this guide. https://github.com/rhasspy/larynx/issues/9
- I built an audio only Gemini client.

NaturalSpeech: End-to-End Text to Speech Synthesis with Human-Level Quality
If you've not already encountered them I'd definitely encourage you to check out these Free/Open Source projects too:
* Larynx: https://github.com/rhasspy/larynx/
* OpenTTS: https://github.com/synesthesiam/opentts
* Likely Mimic3 in the near future: https://mycroft.ai/blog/mimic-3-preview/
Larynx in particular has a focus on "faster than real-time" while OpenTTS is an attempt to package & provide common REST API to all Free/Open Source Text To Speech systems so the FLOSS ecosystem can build on previous work supported by short-lived business interests, rather than start from scratch every time.
AIUI the developer of the first two projects now works for Mycroft AI & is involved in the development of Mimic3 which seems very promising given how much of an impact on quality his solo work has had in just the past couple of years or so.

Need a recommendation: Self hosted speech to text service

Rabbit R1, Designed by Teenage Engineering
It's indeed suspicious. You're sending your voice samples, your various services accounts, your location and more private data to some proprietary black box in some public cloud. Sorry, but this is a privacy nightmare. It should be open source and self-hosted like Mycroft (https://mycroft.ai) or Leon (https://getleon.ai) to be trustworthy.

Finally! Kernel 6.6.6 has been released
Shouldn't this be Mycroft on this sub?

Mycroft
I was expecting this to be about Mycroft the AI assistant ( https://mycroft.ai/ ).

Coral TPU Dev Board for speech-to-text and nvidia agx as host running LLaMA??
But I would recommend writing some proper glue logic in Python and use the socket function for communication. But if you really want to get rid of Alexa, it's probably worth it to set up mycroft.ai or another open source assistant.
