I spent a bit of time putting together development version 0.2 of my MAME frontend. It's had a lick of paint, a host of new features, largely refactored, and migrated/upgrade to .NET10. It's turning into a cool project in its own right, but starting to get quite complicated! There's more going on with MAME than initially meets the eye!
EDIT: plz gizza job.
I was going to say, the long and short of it, record your own voice. Its not like you sound like a drongo yam yam 🤣That was the plan. I started down a bit of a rabbit hole last night in terms of the voiceover...
I hate a lot of the AI nonsense that is now a big part of our modern world (or certainly how it is being pushed and used with scarce consideration as to its impact). Even so, I decided to try something that involved setting up an AI model (that ran on my local computer/GPU) and would produce the voiceover from my script. After I had trained it on my voice. It started well. I had the script typed out beforehand, samples of my spoken voice with different intonation, etc. The AI model then made a call to pull in another component that it required from over the internet. It failed. And it failed again. After multiple attempts, I delved deeper to take a look... and found this...

Of course, tools like this are always going to be abused by unruly folk. Deep fakes are causing a lot of harm.
I did try another AI model, but the demand for it had exceeded their download bandwidth limits... so I gave up and tried a promotional trial offer of a commercially available model. Next time, I will just speak into a flippin' microphone and hit record - thus saving myself several hours of dicking around.
True... but I do sound like a northern monkey. Apparently.
