The code is set up to run out of the box on Mac, but with linux you will need to add in the reference to the voice model (I find they sound far more robotic than Apple's though) You can also use this script to find the other voices on Mac.

import pyttsx3
engine = pyttsx3.init()

voices = engine.getProperty('voices')
for voice in voices:
    print("Voice:")
    print(" - ID: %s" % voice.id)
    print(" - Name: %s" % voice.name)
    print(" - Languages: %s" % voice.languages)
    print(" - Gender: %s" % voice.gender)
    print(" - Age: %s" % voice.age)

It will print a long list like this one (done on Mac)

  Voice:
   - ID: com.apple.speech.synthesis.voice.Alex <---- you copy this 
   
  Voice:
   - ID: com.apple.speech.synthesis.voice.alice
   
  Voice:
   - ID: com.apple.speech.synthesis.voice.alva
   
  Voice:
   - ID: com.apple.speech.synthesis.voice.amelie
   
  Voice:
   - ID: com.apple.speech.synthesis.voice.anna

Next, you will go the "interactive_conditional_samples.py" file and edit line 19 to paste the path for the voice model

Code from the paper "Language Models are Unsupervised Multitask Learners".

We have currently released small (124M parameter), medium (355M parameter), and large (774M parameter) versions of GPT-2^*, with only the full model as of yet unreleased. We have also released a dataset for researchers to study their behaviors.

You can read about GPT-2 and release decisions in our original blog post and 6 month follow-up post.

^* Note that our original parameter counts were wrong due to an error (in our previous blog posts and paper). Thus you may have seen small referred to as 117M and medium referred to as 345M.

This repository is meant to be a starting point for researchers and engineers to experiment with GPT-2.

For basic information, see our model card.

• GPT-2 models' robustness and worst case behaviors are not well-understood. As with any machine-learned model, carefully evaluate GPT-2 for your use case, especially if used without fine-tuning or in safety-critical applications where reliability is important.
• The dataset our GPT-2 models were trained on contains many texts with biases and factual inaccuracies, and thus GPT-2 models are likely to be biased and inaccurate as well.
• To avoid having samples mistaken as human-written, we recommend clearly labeling samples as synthetic before wide dissemination. Our models are often incoherent or inaccurate in subtle ways, which takes more than a quick read for a human to notice.

Please let us know if you’re doing interesting research with or working on applications of GPT-2! We’re especially interested in hearing from and potentially working with those who are studying

• Potential malicious use cases and defenses against them (e.g. the detectability of synthetic text)
• The extent of problematic content (e.g. bias) being baked into the models and effective mitigations

We may release code for evaluating the models on various benchmarks.

We are still considering release of the larger models.
