This is only one side of the coin, you still need really good models for Speech Synthesis and then be able to have it all working in almost real time, ideally locally on device.

As far as TTS goes, Mycroft.ai[0] has released a decent offline one.

I'm pretty sure mycroft sends your speech snippets to Google for processing so it's not exactly offline.

I'm currently trying to setup a deepspeech server on my raspberry pi to see if it works ok for commanding spotify.

Edit: just realised you said `TTS` not `STT`

pico2wave with "-l=en-GB" option to get the British lady voice is pretty decent (way better than the other voices it does for some reason).
