It's been ages!
🕑 Added 2023-01-13 22:18:26 +0000 UTCI haven't logged in in months! I can't believe some of you are still loyal supporters! You guys are the best! I checked my pending withdraw balance and it's enough for a new 2TB SSD I sooo desperately need AND I'll be using it for some Google Colab Compute Units. I've been mastering AI Text to Speech Synthesis using Google Colab in my spare time and my personal life has been hectic! The Holidays with family both Thanksgiving and Christmas and getting sick with TWO different strains of Covid(aka Flu) as well as working on getting a good paying job worth my time and losing the jobs that weren't. I've acquired a few certifications to land a high paying job. In my free time I've been learning python and AI. Seems that 15.ai is taking too long for my liking and I've gone ahead and taken matters into my own hands and learn TTS(text-to-speech) model training and synthesis using the model. I've been looking into 3 main options my first being Nvidia Nemo and the other two being Fake You which uses tacotron2 and CoquiTTS but running it locally. I started learning python for machine learning because I taught myself how to use Stable Diffusion and run it locally on my laptop that has a Nvidia GPU with 4gb VRAM.
My plan is to get a working high fidelity TTS model and use it to start adding dialogue audio to the current Family Guy game and this experience will be useful for future games. To my supporters I don't expert you to financially support this page until I start work again on this game. I'm looking forward to what the future holds and how AI will help speed up game development as well as add quality to it!
