Oh wow, that's awesome. Thanks a lot, dang!

That's cool! You can add SoulX-FlashHead for real-time AI head animation as well if you want to simulate a teacher.

Thanks for sharing! I'm still torn about it. Sure it'll feel more natural if you have the AI head animation, but I don't want people to get attached to it. I don't want to make the loneliness epidemic even worse.

Parlor is so cool, especially since you’re offering it for free. And a great use case for local LLMs.

Thanks! Although, I can't claim any credit for it. I just spent a day gluing what other people have built. Huge props to the Gemma team for building an amazing model and also an inference engine that's focused for edge devices [0]
