    TTS has come incredible long way, there are so many options. There is Kokoro of course, then there is Pocket TTS which is also a tiny 100M model that allows voice cloning. There is…

    I keep seeing these "sovereign" LMs time and time again. In Sweden we had GPT-SW3 ( https://www.ai.se/en/project/gpt-sw3 ) and same story there. Instead of burning money on "sovere…

    This looks beautiful and I'm sorry the current state of affairs has made you not want to publish the code, I would love to play around with it. Regarding your decision to build - I…
