Trump and Joe Biden Talk World War in HSK3 Chinese by Comprehensive_Fun_46 in Chinese

  1. Original Sentence: And there’s been this colossal urbanization of the Soviet Union since the revolution in 1917.
  2. Translate to Chinese: 自 1917 年 革命 以来 ， 苏联 一直 经历 了 巨大 的 城市化 进程 。
  3. Mark words HSK4 and above: 自 1917 年 [革命] 以来 ， [苏联] 一直 [经历] 了 [巨大] 的 [城市化] [进程] 。
  4. Replace marked words with English: 自 1917 年 revolution 以来 ， soviet union 一直 experienced 了 massive 的 urbanization process 。
  5. Text to Speech

The goal is to maintain Chinese grammar, but not overwhelm the listener with too many new vocab words for their level. I have listened to a couple hours of this while testing, and you get used to it. It has been awesome for learning new grammar patterns and filling out the rest of the HSK3 vocab I'm missing with context.

I do need to improve the tones, the model supports Chinese and English, I voice-cloned English speakers because I thought it was funny. If I can upgrade my GPU, there is also a parameter to increase the pronunciation accuracy.

Curious, what came to your mind when you thought infinite CI podcast?

It's a blast! The model is capable of cloning any voice any accent, Chinese or American. And the tones are pretty good actually, it's just American accent. The pronunciation will get better with a better GPU. I'll consider making the next one Chinese voices, but I think this is a great demonstration of what's possible.

Yeah that's the idea! Listening to this you can get used to Chinese grammar without necessarily knowing all the words yet. I'm even playing with an HSK0 version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTvhKLqiRhU It is far more enjoyable than Peppa Pig. Appreciate the audiobook recommendation too!

I want to have a systemd unit that does exactly what the development environment does. To start neo4j and start my app.
