## piper-vasco
This is a Piper TTS model trained from scratch on Whisper transcribed voice lines of Vasco from Starfield. I think the results are quite good.
The model has been currently trained to 1805 epochs on a 3090, and I may upload further epochs later.
The purpose of the model is for AI companion mods, or as a good general voice for local LLM chatting.

## Examples


`The Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer Conjecture is one of the most important unsolved problems in mathematics today. It concerns elliptic curves - which are algebraic equations defined by cubic polynomials - and their associated L-functions. These L-functions encode information about the arithmetic properties of an elliptic curve, such as its rank, which is a measure of how many rational points there are on the curve.`
