I keep seeing tts stories here. Is it just an interesting subset of the llm world, or is there a huge use case I’m somehow missing?

I just built my own voice assistant with my Pebble Time 2 watch and it uses a VPS hosted TTS (Piper) and Hermes agent.

I learned about all of these projects on HN at one point or another.

I use STT/TTS to interface with a local LLM for Home Assistant in my house.

  • I'm do so as well, i tried qwen3 omni 3 but it was ridiculously stupid, and i ended up with stt thinker and tts. kokoro for now
