Bark – Text-prompted generative audio model • Hacker News Board

Some of it is very impressive although some of it seems about equal to the TTS built into my phone. How long until someone can package this up and make a program that takes in epubs and spits out mp3s?

Very cool. Side note: bark-gpt.com is already taken for a dog translator: "The world’s first AI powered, real-time communications tool between humans and their furry best friends."[0] I only know this because my law firm partner's name is Bark, and I wanted to automate some legal work and name the software "Bark GPT" after him.
