Beginners

I have setup this website HuggingChat as an app on my windows pc.
I Have enabled the websearch function, but now am trying to enable the Voice Cloner so the model can speak back. I enable the tool but the model does not seem to use it ?

How do we add these types of tools to the hugging face chat please ?

Hey there!

To enable voice cloning in HuggingChat and get the model to speak back, you’ll need to integrate the voice generation tool correctly. Here’s how you can do it:

  1. Ensure Proper Installation:

    • First, check that you’ve installed all dependencies for the voice cloning tool (such as Vocoder, Tacotron, or FastSpeech models) on your Windows PC.
    • Make sure the model or tool you’re using for voice cloning is properly configured and linked within the HuggingChat settings.

  2. Enable the Voice Cloner:

    • It seems like you’ve enabled the voice cloning tool in the settings, but you might need to double-check if the integration is fully set up. Some models, like VITS or Cloning Models from Hugging Face, require specific setup steps to link them with HuggingChat.
    • If it’s a third-party integration (e.g., from Respeecher or Descript), you’ll need to ensure that API keys or authentication are correctly configured.

  3. Update the HuggingChat Config:

    • In your HuggingChat configuration or settings file, ensure that the voice tool is marked as “active” or “enabled.”
    • You might need to add the specific voice cloning model to the pipeline (e.g., a TTS model).

  4. Check the Integration Code:

    • If you are using a custom script to integrate the voice tool, make sure that your code is set up to send text to the voice model after generating the response. For example:
      response_text = generate_chat_response()
if voice_cloner_enabled:
    voice_output = voice_cloner.convert_to_speech(response_text)
    play_audio(voice_output)

  5. Test with a Simple Model:

    • Try testing with a simpler voice cloning tool or even a pre-trained voice model to see if the issue is with the specific tool you’re trying to use.

  6. Logs and Debugging:

    • Check HuggingChat’s logs for any errors related to the voice model. If it’s not being used, there might be an issue with the configuration or setup process.

Once everything is set up, the model should start speaking the responses back to you! If you’re still facing issues, it could be helpful to check HuggingChat’s documentation or community forum for specific integration details.

Thanks for your reply.
Am using the official hugging face chat, that they have setup, and tried using the tools on it.

I don’t have the hugging chat ui on my home pc, I am currently using and learning Oobabooga at home.

I was hoping I could use the voice cloner tool with the official hugging face chat that they run.
The link I posted in the first post.
