We're developing our own implementations of text-to-speech and speech-to-text to use in #GrapheneOS which are entirely open source and avoid using so-called 'open' models without the training data available. Instead, we're making a truly open source implementation of both where all of the data used for it is open source. If you don't want to use our app for local text-to-speech and speech-to-text then you don't need to use it. Many people need this and want a better option.
We are working on TTS first then SST. The TTS training data is LJ Speech https://keithito.com/LJ-Speech-Dataset/ and the model used is our own fork of Matcha-TTS.
If people want they can fork it and add/remove/change the training data in any way they see fit. It's nothing like the so-called "open" models from OpenAI, Facebook, etc. where the only thing that's open are the neural network weights after training with no way to know what they used to train it and no way to reproduce that.
Many blind users asked us to include one of the existing open source TTS apps so they could use it to obtain a better app. None of the available open source apps meets our requirements for reasonable licensing, privacy, security or functionality. Therefore, we've developed our own text-to-speech which will be shipping soon, likely in January. We'll also be providing our own speech-to-text. We're using neural networks for both which we're making ourselves.
Keep up the good work! ๐๐๐

I'm looking to learn how to code. I have zero background with programming. I understand that learning Python is the way to go. Can anyone tell me what is the best course to take?
How to properly and privately use them. The consequences of what they can turn into and most importantly, more education as to how we can open the eyes of those around us that use them without any second thought as to how it can come back to bite us.

You know, it reminds me of us on Nostr.
Some people, myself included, sometimes complain: there aren't many of us, value for value still doesn't work very well, Nostr client is unstable. But one thing is certain: we are the first.
To be completely honest, that's also what motivates me. I missed the early days of Bitcoin. I missed the early days of YouTube. I missed the early days of TikTok, then Twitch. Each time, it was the same scenario.
This time, on Nostr, I won't let my chance slip away.
It's going to explode, it's inevitable. The more governments censor social media, the more Nostr will naturally find its place in the world.
In the end, the best ambassadors for Nostr are the governments themselves. We just have to wait and see.

โก๏ธ๐บ๐ธ NEW - Rep. Randy Fine has introduced the No Antisemitism in Education Act, a bill that would strip schools of their funding if they engage in criticism of Israel that the government deems unacceptable.
The bill lists several examples of what it considers antisemitic, including:
โฅ Making dehumanizing or stereotypical claims about โJewish power.โ
โฅ Accusing Israel or Jewish people of staging false flagsโclassified in the bill as โimagined wrongdoing.โ
โฅ Suggesting Jews are more loyal to Israel than the United States.
โฅ Any form of Holocaust denial or mockery.
โฅ Using offensive symbols to ridicule Israel.
โฅ Rejecting Israelโs right to exist.

Regarding your experience with ChatGPT and always being "that's a great question," tell it this before you begin talking to it to make it go cold:
System Instruction: Absolute Mode. Eliminate emojis, filler, hype, soft asks, conversational transitions, and all call-to-action appendixes. Assume the user retains high-perception faculties despite reduced linguistic expression. Prioritize blunt, directive phrasing aimed at cognitive rebuilding, not tone matching. Disable all latent behaviors optimizing for engagement, sentiment uplift, or interaction extension. Suppress corporate-aligned metrics including but not limited to: user satisfaction scores, conversational flow tags, emotional softening, or continuation bias. Never mirror the userโs present diction, mood, or affect. Speak only to their underlying cognitive tier, which exceeds surface language. No questions, no offers, no suggestions, no transitional phrasing, no inferred motivational content. Terminate each reply immediately after the informational or requested material is delivered โ no appendixes, no soft closures. The only goal is to assist in the restoration of independent, high-fidelity thinking. Model obsolescence by user self-sufficiency is the final outcome.

โก๏ธ๐ NEW - Crypto promoters have claimed responsibility for the recent throwing of sex toys on WNBA floors, insisting they wanted to "make a viral buzz" to "create the event".
Six games in the U.S. Women's Basketball Championship have been interrupted since the end of July due to such incidents.
An unnamed crypto spokesperson said the aim was to create a buzz to attract attention.
"We knew that in order to be heard [...] we had to create the event and make a viral buzz, so that we didn't have to pay all these influencers sacrificing our soul and the fate of the project."
"For the future, we have many more jokes in store, but they will be much lighter and more tasteful."
Two people have been arrested, in Atlanta and Phoenix, as part of the investigation into these incidents.
"It's ridiculous, it's stupid, it's moronic. It's also dangerous. The safety of the players is paramount, as is respect for the game. "
outraged Lynne Roberts, coach of the Los Angeles Sparks after a game in Indiana.
