Show HN: Samuel, a Silly Speech Modelhttps://samuel.vvolhejn.com/My original idea was to make a modern supercharged version of SAM, the old-school text-to-speech. Then I remembered Pink Trombone, one of my favorite creative coding projects. In the end, I decided to just make it a model that mimics speech - it would be easy to make a text-to-speech by chaining an existing TTS with a Samuel filter.The phonetics work quite well for vowels - you can try making a sound and then seeing if the predicted tongue prediction matches where your tongue was. It's less accurate for consonants; it doesn't do plosives or nasals (I tried).How the machine learning works:It's a speech autoencoder in which the decoder is Pink Trombone. A couple of issues: PT is not differentiable, so I use Gumbel softmax to get a differentiable approximation. PT also generates audio sample-by-sample (apparently it's called a "Kelly-Lochbaum vocal tract model"), which would make training extremely slow. To do that, I approximate it using FIR filters that change each 10ms. The fundamental

Show HN: AnyCreature. making 3D creature by agent. harness by 3D assets pipelinehttps://github.com/Ariescar/anyCreatureI’m a Technical Artist. I built anyCreature, an open-source, mesh-based generative harness designed to programmatically quantify and enforce 3D aesthetics through three automated pipeline checks: 1. QC Thresholds: Automated pass/fail checks for standard game-engine specs (poly count, vertex budget, rigging, and animation tracks). 2. Quantified Aesthetics: Spatial vertex analysis to objectively measure mass distribution and form tension, ensuring biologically logical anatomy. 3. Silhouette & Readability: Automated high-contrast B&W renders and 24px thumbnail tests to guarantee visual clarity and instant readability in-game.I would love to see what you create with this tool. Feedback is welcome as I continue to optimize this harness.Ariescar | Gobkit
