15.ai was the original, in a lot of regards. I used to chat with the dude on 4chan, he was a genuinely intelligent (albeit rather socially awkward) guy, and a bit of a perfectionist at that. The downside was that there was always downtime and a few hidden servers floating around. The upside was... almost perfect voice synthesis, even a year ago.

Funny, I just wrote about this type of encounter with exceptional talented people with similar results, and while I didn't detail it in the response, several of those were from those I met on 4chan from 2005-2015 (I checked out after gamergate as it got toxic and less fun).
I hadn't seen 15.ai but its pretty accurate from what I played with. I wonder if he'd be open to see how he trains his algo (deepthroat) with the data sets he gets. He seems to not care about making money from this, or IP and hates NFTs so this would be a good indication he might be up for it.
Sidenote: Also, did you just out yourself as pony*** (brony)?

In all fairness, if you looked up my Mastodon account I'd be outed in moments :p
It's not that big of a deal anyways. I still consider it less degenerate than the folks who burn a decade of their life working on an SAAS that they hate. At least I got to go to a few cool conventions.
