My latest project, where I steal #WernerHerzog and #Zizek's voices and have them converse endlessly.
Funny? Creepy? Inspiring? Unethical? You decide. I certainly enjoyed working on it.

All of a sudden, I am reminded of that time when the worlds of and collided.

Nice job!
I'm curious if the prompts/conversational models are the same for the two speakers, or if it's more like two autonomous agents

There's four models at play here. One fine-tuned language model and one fine-tuned TTS model for each speaker. So they are "autonomous", they retain part of their mannerisms... but honestly it's far from perfect. It does maintain the illusion for a bit, though!

This is just amazing. What open source tools did you use to virtualize the voices? I'm fascinated with the technology.

We talked a bit about the process on this Hacker News thread. I'll probably write a more organized blog post at some point.

Fascinating Giacomo!
Question: Is it just as easy to progam a similar script of two completely other people having such conversation? For example, David Bowie and Michel Foucault, or Roald Dahl and Angela Merkel?
If so: Can we have a dropdown with a couple people to choose from?

I actually got to an end
I guess it thought that it is the most logical thing to do is to end it there
I don't know how I would verify that to you but here is a picture.
I could go back to show you what happend before.

I'm fascinated by this. Would like to reproduce this for ourselves. Wanna help?
