- So, i’ve been doing all my LLM-tinkering on an M1-- using llama.cpp/whisper.cpp for to run a basic voice powered assistant, nothing new at this point.
- Currently adding a visual component to it-- ShareGPT4V-7B, assuming I manage to convert to
gguf
. Once thats done i should be able to integrate it with llama.cpp and wire it to a live camera feed-- giving it eyes. - Might even get crazy and throw in a low level component to handle basic object detection, letting the model know when something is being “shown” to the to it-- other than that it will activate when prompted to do so (text or voice).
The one thing I’m not sure about is how to run a TTS engine locally like StyleTTS2-LJSpeech? are there libraries that support tts models?
Update: quick reddit search (which i should’ve done prior to posting tbh) led me to this post: ai_voicechat_script
