# JULIA⚡

A personal assistant inspired by Tony Stark's JARVIS, built using Gradio, edge_tts, Hugging Face Inference API, and streaming STT (Speech-to-Text) with Nemo.

## Features

- Voice and text input support
- Text-to-Speech response
- Multiple model support via Hugging Face Inference API
- Friendly and concise responses from a virtual assistant named Julia

## How It Works

- **Speech-to-Text (STT):** Uses the `streaming_stt_nemo` library to transcribe audio inputs.
- **Text Generation:** Uses models from Hugging Face Inference API to generate responses.
- **Text-to-Speech (TTS):** Uses `edge_tts` to convert the generated response into audio.

## Interface

The Gradio interface includes:

- A dropdown to select the model.
- An audio input for voice commands.
- A text input for typed commands.
- A send button to submit the input.
- A text output to display the assistant's response.
- An audio output to play the assistant's response.
