On: Show HN: Dia, an open-weights TTS model for generating realistic dialogue

[throwaway-alpha]

I have a hunch they're pulling data from radio shows to give it that "high quality" vibe. Tried running it through this script and hit some weird bugs too:

    [S1] It really sounds as if they've started using NPR to source TTS models
    [S2] Yeah... yeah... it's kind of disturbing (laughs dejectedly).
    [S3] I really wish, that they would just Stop with this.

The “Yeah…” followed by an uncomfortably long pause then a second “Yeah…” killed me.

It even added an extra f-word at the end. Still veeery impressive

Oh brother imagine using this and noticing 4 months in that it randomly throws f-words for flavor at your users

I think it also said "maaan" at the end of the previous line. And speaks out lout the "dejectedly".

The author is a reasonable person. The community is as poisonous as hell. Two people in the slack group made many to leave. Nothing has been done yet. A few years ago, they removed a friend of mine. Because the two men turned their eyes on them like the malicious Sauron.

The output is interesting. Remove yourself as far as possible from the community.

What are the issues with the community?
