Someone, please ask OpenAI to stop artificially dumbing down ChatGPT by adding "um" to the audio output. I get that it is supposed to make it more human-like or something, but every time I hear it do that, I cringe and feel sad for humanity.
- niek_pas 3y agoFunny, I have the exact opposite response. It does, indeed, make it seem more human-like to me.
- gotrythis 3y agoI agree. That's the sad part. I want super-intelligence to sound intelligent and not artificially brought down to our level. :-)
- ilaksh 3y agoIf they are using Eleven Labs, this is just the Stability setting. Turning it down will make it more realistic and closer to the training data. That is what causes the pauses and imperfections. You can sign up and use their Voice Lab for free or maybe a few bucks and experiment with the slider for Stability and the other setting. In my opinion, turning Stability down just a little bit to demo extremely realistic speech is a no-brainer. They could have turned it up and made it ultra-smooth, but that makes no sense. Why make your robot demo less realistic deliberately?
- empath-nirvana 3y agoWhat if it just inserts filler words when the text generation is too slow, to make it sound more natural. It's exactly what people do when they're thinking about what to say next.
