How difficult is it now to train your own voice models? I remember seeing years ago that people had Obama, JayZ, and Eminem able to say arbitrary things, the issue was the hardware and having a massive amount of text that matches what they are saying.
The Home Assistant team really seems like they are going to accomplish their goal of fully local voice assistants this year, but are avoiding any discussion of training or using any model that isn't fully licensed and open sourced. Piper seems nice, but there are dozens of other voices I would like instead, including my own voice.
- digitalsushi 3y agothere was a post yesterday on HN, someone made a deepfake kit that can make a video from a single video. It pulls a lot of pretrained data automatically, which I take it is how it accomplishes it. So maybe with enough demand, there will be a similar voice solution. This sort of exposes how very little I understand of this technology. Maybe I can Cunningham my way into learning something new very affordably here.
