Open NotebookLM

Overview

This project is inspired by the NotebookLM tool, and implements it with open-source LLMs and text-to-speech models. This tool processes the content of a PDF, generates a natural dialogue suitable for an audio podcast, and outputs it as an MP3 file.

Built with:

• Llama 3.3 70B 🦙 via Fireworks AI 🎆 and Instructor 📐
• MeloTTS 🐚
• Bark 🐶
• Jina Reader 🔍

Features

• Convert PDF to Podcast: Upload a PDF and convert its content into a podcast dialogue.
• Engaging Dialogue: The generated dialogue is designed to be informative and entertaining.
• User-friendly Interface: Simple interface using Gradio for easy interaction.

2. Create a virtual environment and activate it:

   python -m venv .venv
   source .venv/bin/activate

3. Install the required packages:

Usage

1. Set up the environment variables: copy the set_env.sh file to a new file env.sh which is owned by you(it will not be tracked by git), and set the environment variables to your own values. Then run it with source env.sh.

2. Run the application:

   python app.py

   This will launch a Gradio interface in your web browser.
