Someone already did: https://github.com/stlohrey/chatterbox-finetuning And someone else fine-tuned it for German: https://huggingface.co/SebastianBodza/Kartoffelbox-v0.1

This is just the code license. Parents are referring to the XTTS model (their best one).

Some insights from one former lead: https://erogol.com/2024/01/09/goodsandbadsofopensource TLDR: Making money from open-source is hard.

The licenses of the code (MPL 2.0, allowing commercial use) and the available pretrained models ( https://github.com/idiap/coqui-ai-TTS/blob/dev/TTS/.models.j... ) are all clearly …

Many of them still allow commercial use. The question is most likely about the XTTS model, which doesn't, but its license is up to the original Coqui team.

Yes, you can train/fine-tune models on your own voice with Coqui

We do maintain a fork, mostly with bug fixes for now: https://github.com/idiap/coqui-ai-TTS PRs welcome :)

They just shared the paper for XTTS, which got accepted to Interspeech and might be the reason for this being posted now: https://arxiv.org/abs/2406.04904

Sleeper trains need a supplement and are often booked out in advance, so he sleeps on the night ICE trains ( https://leben-im-zug.de/howto-nachtreise-im-ice/ ). These are regular t…

After such a long time it's probably not comparable to one at a more normal ripening stage. The region is mostly known for Raclette, but for these cheeses the milk is apparently he…

STT training data includes all kinds of "noisy" speech so that the model learns to recognise speech in any conditions. TTS training data needs to be as clean as possible so that yo…

The "Understanding Deep Learning" book covers more recent models as well: https://udlbook.github.io/udlbook/ (free PDF and Jupyter notebooks available)

NightJet trains from Zurich to Barcelona and Rome were indeed planned to run from 2024, but this will probably be delayed because the Swiss Federal Railways won't receive subsidies…

There are also many stops on the way and you might only get on in Basel or get off somewhere in Germany already, leaving you with even less time on the train, so 12h for the full Z…

Bread can be frozen with very little impact on quality.

French Gruyère now has AOC status as well, but it must have holes to distinguish it from the Swiss one: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gruy%C3%A8re_fran%C3%A7ais

I found it easy to get started with the very basics (e.g. recording of simple transactions) and I'm just reading up more over time on how to handle more complex things like splitti…

VIAC is a great alternative. It's cheaper than traditional banks and allows a higher share of investment in equities: https://viac.ch/en/

Recordings are force-aligned to the transcriptions anyway (using essentially a speech recognition system) to obtain phone-level alignments. You don't need explicit timing informati…

Even if there is no background noise present, the quality is nowhere near that of professional studio recordings and would be very noticeable in the output. Also, for traditional s…

The other day, (French) Siri replied to "What are you doing this evening?" with "I'm playing hide-and-seek with Markov models".

From LSA/SVD you get a V x K matrix as well - that's exactly what the factorisation is doing. The following two papers also go into detail about the mathematical similarities betwe…

"The prototype vehicles in particular are equipped with removable steering wheels, accelerator pedals and brake pedals that allow test drivers to take over driving if desired." [1]…
