Home Assistantās Year of the Voice ā 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
I haven't used it on it's own, but Larynx has worked well for me for Rhasspy

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.
- Anything like ChatGPT that we can run ourself where we train with with our own data, so we can use it as personal assistant, where it only knows about oneself better than themselves ?
- open source AI projects
- Open alternative to Google Assistant/Siri/Alexa?

Voice Control was supposed to be the Future. Is Linux lagging behind?
I literally had this thought a couple of days ago and went down a small rabbit hole looking into it too! There's some stuff out there (I saw Mycroft and Coqui mentioned in the comments already, also check out Leon, Jarvis, and OA although not sure they all deploy to Linux) but ultimately, I just don't think the tech is there yet.
-
What if a DAO bought Alexa from Amazon?
Mycroft is pretty decent and there are a few other similar open source projects if you're interested (https://github.com/MycroftAI, https://github.com/leon-ai/leon)
-
Is there such a thing as a self-hosted Alexa that runs on a server, and has low power devices like an Amazon Alexa subscribe to that service?
Take a look at Leon I'm not sure it's what you're looking for but it look pretty awesome.

Appwrite OSS Fund Sponsors Leon
Leon is an open-source personal assistant who can live on your server. He does stuff when you ask him to. You can talk to him and he can talk to you. You can also text him and he can also text you. If you want to, Leon can communicate with you by being offline to protect your privacy.
