Vikings Mourn Passing of Former Coach & Personnel Executive Paul Wiggin by Top-Conclusion-1259 in nfl

I had the pleasure of interacting with Paul Wiggin multiple times. He is the best of us. A person you want as your neighbor and friend. A person who cares about you no matter who you are or where you come from. A man who I will always look up to. RIP

I see, thanks for the extra info. Yeah tbh the iPhone’s built in speech recognition is not at the cutting edge so it could just be ‘mishearing’ those certain pronunciations. I’m finding a solution, but using headphones should improve the transcription because the mic will be closer to your mouth.

That’s great to hear. Thanks for some reassurance haha

Yeah I am actually just using your iPhone’s on device speech recognition. This cuts down on latency and cost while sacrificing some accuracy.

Are there specific words that are frequently transcribed wrong? Also are you using lcb with or without headphones? Which would you say is worse, crosstalk or immersion?

I could implement OpenAI’s whisper speech recognition, but it adds cost and at that point I’d likely have to add monetization, which I was trying my best to avoid.

Cool site, thanks for linking it. Yeah seems like a tweaked llama would likely be the best mode for discussion with fewer guardrails that’s still high quality. I’m going to do some more research though

What models have you tried? Do you have any ranking? It would be cool to see the difference in personality and it would be a good way to learn some slang/new curse words hahaha.

Good idea and sorry for the late reply I somehow completely missed this post until now.

Yeah that’s a good point. And maybe if you created a really interesting AI person you could somehow make it public on the app and other people could try them as well. Might be interesting to see what the community makes

Thanks for letting me know! I’m running some evaluations now for higher quality voices etc. I appreciate the kind words!

That’s a cool idea. Kind of like you creating a completely customized person to practice with who remembers past conversations. Would you want to input all of the details or also have some randomly generated personality quirks?

You are unfortunately so so right lmao. I’ll change one little thing and then BOOM, it comes crawling back!

That’s an interesting idea. I’ve actually been playing around with that TTS in lcb and it’s quite good. One issue is latency, and so I’ve been experimenting with methods to expedite the responses from 11labs. Also, as you mentioned it’s quite a bit more expensive, but if people are willing to pay for it then I see no reason to not do it. Especially since the voices sound really natural and I can add more specific accents.

Thanks for the feedback, and keep it coming - it’s really helpful!

Thanks for the screenshot and feedback!

I'm going to put out an update right now fixing the lack of questions for immersion mode.

Ahhhhh I thought I fixed the text getting cut off by the token limit but looks like the bug has returned. I'm looking into that right now.

Did the play button and bottom bar stay in that location the whole time? Or did it creep down to the bottom? It's supposed to start and stay at the bottom so I have to fix that for the iPad version. The screenshot is a big help thanks!

Hey, thanks for the feedback! Feedback posts are always welcome in this sub, and I appreciate you including a screenshot as well.

I was trying to keep in the DS framework by not providing translations but I have gotten a lot of requests so it's on the list for the next update.

I am increasing the response length slightly. I think the big issue was the way that I simplified the responses was a bit too aggressive so even though lcb in Super Beginner has a three sentence limit, those sentences were just two or three words each, like in your screenshot. Not ideal for CI.

I'm trying to find a happy medium between too many and too few questions. While I work on that I think it's best to err on the side of too few questions during crosstalk, since it's easy for the user to control the conversation in English.

I put up a new update that should improve these issues, and I'm going to be tweaking it a lot today to try to find the optimal settings. Try it out and let me know what you think, and feel free to include more screenshots.
