Oh thanks all for the nice comments! My fork is at https://github.com/troed/speech-to-speech but beware it's not kept in any other state than what I've last pushed :) Also you'll have to supply your own chime wavs and voice sample etc.

This is cool as heck. Can you share the details at some point?
It needs some punch-card-shuffling noises to bring the TOS vibes. Great work!
Fantastic! I built my own lcars control panel for a wall in my house using Html/JavaScript and always dreamed of finishing it with voice control.

That is cool as fuck. Nice job
Circa 2009-2010 there was a desktop overlay theme for Windows XP that I think was called System47. It was super basic, a LCARS overlay that let you access basic apps and info. It included a voice command which you could open apps or perform certain functions.
Is there a guide on how to duplicate this? I saw a voice to LLM back to voice tutorial a few weeks ago but it was much slower and the developer talked about the fixes needed that you must have implemented!
I'd be tempted to have it switch voices for different purposes. Robert Picardo's EMH for medicinal queries, Kate Mulgrew for "what should I do" queries, alternate between James Doohan & LeVar Burton for technical stuff, etc. Might throw in some Lower Decks characters for fun, too.

OMG I love this. Thank you for sharing!
What do you use for voice synthesis?

"A keyboard? How quaint."
Majel was fine with her voice being used for computer so I don't think there's any problem there.

Holy shit I love LLMs now
A long time ago, I tried to tune a Piper voice using Majel Barrett's speech from her reading of the novel "Q In Law", but I didn't get very far - just a small amount of training data collected.
I agree; for reasons other people have discussed in detail here, I think Majel Barrett is probably one of the least ethically ambiguous actors you can do this with.
