Achieving sub-500KB speech AI presents significant hurdles, as demonstrated by projects like KittenTTS. The pursuit of small, offline voice assistants often leads to compromises in speech quality and latency, making them impractical for low-power devices. Additionally, dependencies can introduce licensing issues, further complicating development. AI
