This project is the first part of the "Pony Preservation Project" dealing with the voice.
It's dedicated to save our beloved pony's voices by creating a neural network based Text To Speech for our favourite ponies.
Videos such as https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GuJKTodX1FA or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWK_iYBl8cA have proven that we now have the technology to generate convincing voices using machine learning algorithms "trained" on nothing but clean audio clips.
With roughtly 10 seasons (8 soon to be 9 seasons and 5 movies) worth of voice lines available, we have more than enough material to apply this tech for our deviant needs.
Any anon is free to join, and many are already contributing. Just read the guide to learn how you can help bring on the wAIfu revolution. Whatever you technical level, you can help.

>Active Tasks
https://clyp.it/mmxgq1yx [Do you like it?]
- Create a dataset for speech synthesis (clip and transcribe episodes TlDr : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmpXyBbOObM )
- Test some AI program with the current (unfinished) dataset
- Research AI (read papers and find open source projects)
- Find a good way to host a full archive of the project resources (ideally p2p)
>Latest Developments
https://clyp.it/xp4q1bru [Yay!]
- A group of anons (well mostly one Anon in fact) have completed full clip sets for 6 season worth of audio
- One anon has managed to create a rough proof of concept using low quality audio clips (https://files.catbox.moe/91f1w1.zip)
- One anon just started training a more refined proof of concept using the current better quality but smaller dataset (https://vocaroo.com/i/s1lmDjWoNEqk)
- Multiple anons have created converters to help import subtitles and dialogues into Audacity
>Cool, where is the discord/forum/whatever unifying place for this project!?
