Note when using KittenTTS: 1) Requires Python 3.6+ runtime environment; 2) First time use requires internet connection to download about 25MB of model weights (subsequent offline runtime is possible); 3) Currently, the main focus is on optimizing English speech generation, with limited support for other languages; 4) Speech style adjustments need to be made through the presetvoice
parameter implementation; and 5) although punctuation is supported to influence speech rhythm, fine-grained intonation control is not provided. It is recommended that these constraints be evaluated based on specific requirement scenarios.
