Welcome to LocalLLaMA! Here we discuss running and developing machine learning models at home. Lets explore cutting edge open source neural network technology together.

Get support from the community! Ask questions, share prompts, discuss benchmarks, get hyped at the latest and greatest model releases! Enjoy talking about our awesome hobby.

As ambassadors of the self-hosting machine learning community, we strive to support each other and share our enthusiasm in a positive constructive way.

Rules:

Rule 1 - No harassment or personal character attacks of community members. I.E no namecalling, no generalizing entire groups of people that make up our community, no baseless personal insults.

Rule 2 - No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning models to cryptocurrency. I.E no comparing the usefulness of models to that of NFTs, no comparing the resource usage required to train a model is anything close to maintaining a blockchain/ mining for crypto, no implying its just a fad/bubble that will leave people with nothing of value when it burst.

Rule 3 - No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning to simple text prediction algorithms. I.E statements such as "llms are basically just simple text predictions like what your phone keyboard autocorrect uses, and they're still using the same algorithms since <over 10 years ago>.

Rule 4 - No implying that models are devoid of purpose or potential for enriching peoples lives.

Computer! Fully local tool capable voice assistant with clients on multiple platforms (video.troed.se)

Gemma 4 12B QAT + faster Qwen 3 TTS fits perfectly fine in 12GB VRAM and can be used to create a fully local voice assistant with ... reconizeable traits ;)

The project is fully open source and published here: https://git.sync.wtf/starfleet

I see Youtubers trying to do similar things every now and then but for some reason their latencies always seem a lot higher than I would expect so if the one I've conjured up (based on Huggingface's Speech-to-Speech project initially) is special somehow then maybe it's of interest to others.

Ooh, we're getting close to my dream scenario now! Just one bit left, though. Which model do I install to make my voice sound like Captain Picard's?

I assume you meant your and not the computer's, and I agree - would also like to sound like him sometimes! :D

For those interested in the voice cloning part of the project though, it's done "live" at server startup through two config options:

  --qwen3_tts_ref_audio ./computer.wav
  --qwen3_tts_ref_text "Darmak is the name of a seventh dynasty emperor on condon four A myth of a historical hunter on Chantil three A colony on Melindi seven"

Selecting the voice of the computer thus only needs a clear .wav of them speaking and a transcription.
