Validate activity before betting a new project on icevision. - Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge. - Vector Databases: Don't reach for a dedicated vector DB under ~100k vectors; pgvector on your existing Postgres is simpler to operate. ## When NOT to use GPT-SoVITS - Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge. ## Common questions ### What is the difference between icevision and GPT-SoVITS? icevision: An Agnostic Computer Vision Framework - Pluggable to any Training Library: Fastai, Pytorch-Lightning with more to come. GPT-SoVITS: 1 min voice data can also be used to train a good TTS model! (few shot voice cloning).
