I want to use DialoGPT to have a conversation with me using a microphone and speaker.
However, before I get there, I want to begin by somehow connecting this chat bot to a speaker using pyttsx3. I am able to properly use pyttsx3 to produce sound out of my computer speakers using pre inserted text (i.e. "hello world").
I am also able to use DialoGPT to have a conversation using the terminal.
Therein lies the first issue of connecting the two. I have pasted my current code and was wondering if someone could offer me some assistance.
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
import torch
import pyttsx3
engine = pyttsx3.init()
# Set properties before adding
# Things to say
# Sets speed percent
# Can be more than 100
engine.setProperty('rate',190)
# Set volume 0-1
engine.setProperty('volume', 0.7)
# Set ID of voice
voice_id = "com.apple.speech.synthesis.voice.karen"
# Use female voice
engine.setProperty('voice', voice_id)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("microsoft/DialoGPT-large")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("microsoft/DialoGPT-large")
# Let's chat for 5 lines
for step in range(5):
# encode the new user input, add the eos_token and return a tensor in Pytorch
new_user_input_ids = tokenizer.encode(input(">> User:") + tokenizer.eos_token, return_tensors='pt')
# append the new user input tokens to the chat history
bot_input_ids = torch.cat([chat_history_ids, new_user_input_ids], dim=-1) if step > 0 else new_user_input_ids
# generated a response while limiting the total chat history to 1000 tokens,
chat_history_ids = model.generate(bot_input_ids, max_length=1000, pad_token_id=tokenizer.eos_token_id)
# pretty print last ouput tokens from bot
engine.say("DialoGPT: {}").format(tokenizer.decode(chat_history_ids[:, bot_input_ids.shape[-1]:][0], skip_special_tokens=True))
