I played around a few minutes with the various features. The voice removing was kind of impressive, though I don't know how novel that is.
I tried making some AI covers, too, which was kind of fun. For one of my tries, I submitted Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit for AI voice generation to make a cover of Carola's song "Främling" (Sweden's ESC song 1983 which came in third, a very non-Nirvana-type of song). At first, I thought the voice sounded pretty much like a Swedish Kurt Cobain, then the more I listened to it, all I could hear was the Swedish artist Nordman, and it dawned upon me that they have similar voice styles. I tried lowering the pitch, and then I was certain I recognised the voice from another artist but couldn't place it. So I'm leaning towards the AI voices being trained on some not-so-unfamiliar artists rather than there being some cool AI magic happening, though I'm out of my depth here.
If I'm understanding the article correctly, re: (2), the 'contract' was between Disney and the widower husband (Piccolo), not the deceased (Tangsuan). Disney claims he (Piccolo) must abide by Disney+ ToS and arbitrate while his defense argues he's a plaintiff for the deceased's estate and not representing himself.
> Shame they deleted the scene explaining all that. It's still easy to find though.
Huh! I always thought the logic was that since the aliens used earth satellite systems they had already interfaced with human computer systems and the infection was made via the satellite system, which I believe the main character was knowledgable about.
That doesn't entirely follow, though. Just because you could talk to the alien computers doesn't mean you could execute a program on them. IMO the deleted scene is the only way it can make sense.
Actually lol, who says the aliens were not running a emulator of our own systems and in their hubris ran it on elevated privs.
ok ok, considering the Aliens allowed their own ship, which was visually compromised AND could have been easily scanned for non-alien life(?)... clearly not a culture of security.
I don't know if it's nostalgia or silliness, but I've at various times reused the ICQ uh-oh audio as irssi hilight/putty audio bell sound, SMS signal and Discord voice channel join sound over the years. Usually I find it entertaining the first two or three times and then it acts as a very large stressor.
Sweden, logged out from all devices, Google authentication to reset password results in error. Authorization codes sent via SMS to reset passwords seems non-responsive. Authorization codes to reset password sent by e-mail works, but setting passwords results in set password page two times in a row and after second try "An unexpected error occurred. Please try logging in again."
Pretty much the same here. I used mIRC extensively as shareware from 1994 to early the late 90s/early 2000s, then switched to BitchX and later irssi. It wasn't until somewhere around 2010 I purchased a license for all the joy mIRC had allowed me to access. Whenever I do a reinstall of my server and need to temporarily connect to IRC meanwhile I find myself downloading and using mIRC if only for a couple of hours since I use Windows as my desktop o/s.
Hijacking since you're dev for a straight answer. There's mentions of multiple voice choices. Is one of them a sampling of the red queen in RE movies? I loved her dialect/voice.
sadly no. CoquiTTS integration was in the making, where you have some voice cloning features, but I had to delay it, as it required some newer versions(python 3.9) and I think it was 64bit only.
Currently you got the following choice:
Pico,
Mycroft,
Google Standard/Wavenet,
Amazon,
IBM Watson
And while using one of the cloud variants might cause security concerns, keep in mind, they will only know what to speak, not why (e.g. what your input/request was)
