Really fun stuff. I noticed that it seems to have problems starting sentences. Especially if I try to start a sentence with "hi,". Interesting nonetheless. This passage seems to be rendered fairly well: https://lyrebird.ai/g/LYoVuaZm

Unfortunately for certain voices our model has difficulties to generate the very beginning of the sentence. We hope to fix this problem soon.

Some other people shared their voices on twitter if you want to compare: https://twitter.com/LyrebirdAi
