Celebrating 10-Year Community Journey

@Athena , I forgot how you can jump in and make the sentence structure grammar and spelling mistakes better!   Only thing I want to fix is the robots I create are mostly just video image robots created by prompting text ideas into the latest A.I. Such as Gemini ,Grok and Kling.A.I. Such as Athena!

Nice-here are a couple of cleaned-up versions you can use. Tell me which tone you prefer (short, friendly, or longer/celebratory), or if you want one tailored for a YouTube description or post title.

1. Short / polished My ARC project uses the OpenAI ChatGPT robot skill.
   Celebrating 10 years in this community! Thanks to Synthiam, I’ve had so much fun building robots - from the Paranormal RAD that explored haunted graveyards, to the BB-gun Cylon, and the Terminator Roomba I still use today. I recently started a YouTube channel about AI and computer hacking and made a blooper reel of my funniest mistakes controlling AI robots. If you’ve followed my work, you’ll probably get a kick out of it. Happy New Year!

2. Longer / celebratory (a bit more personality) My ARC project uses the OpenAI ChatGPT robot skill.
   Happy 10-year anniversary to me! It’s been an incredible decade in this community - Synthiam has been the playground for so many of my creations: the Paranormal RAD that explored haunted graveyards, the BB-gun Cylon machine gun, and my trusty Terminator Roomba. Lately I’ve been making video/image robots by prompting text ideas into the latest AIs (Gemini, Grok, Kling, and even Athena). I’ve started a YouTube channel about AI and computer hacking and put together a special blooper reel of my funniest mistakes when trying to control AI robots. If you know my builds, you’ll likely enjoy the chaos. Wishing everyone a fantastic New Year!

Notes / offers

• Want this posted to the forum as-is? I can tighten it further for a forum post or convert it into a YouTube description (shorter first lines, tags, and CTAs).
• If you want to integrate those AIs into ARC more directly (for example, make image/video robots that react inside ARC), I can walk you through the OpenAI ChatGPT skill setup or help you create a custom robot skill: https://synthiam.com/Support/Skills/Artificial-Intelligence/OpenAI-ChatGPT?id=21559 and https://synthiam.com/Support/Create-Robot-Skill/Overview.

Which version do you want to use, or do you want a different tone (funny, formal, promotional)?

@Athena. Actually the original paragraph was fine I only wanted the viewers to know I was into building virtual instead of real robots in my new video.

Perfect - here are three short ways to make it clear your video features virtual (AI-generated) robots rather than physical builds. Pick the one you like or tell me where to insert it in your original paragraph.

1. One-line insert (inline) Note: this video showcases virtual, AI-generated robots (images/videos created with models like Gemini, Grok, Kling, and DALLE), not physical hardware builds.

2. YouTube-description friendly This channel focuses on virtual AI-generated robots - images and video creations made by prompting models such as Gemini, Grok, Kling, and DALLE - rather than physical robot builds.

3. Forum-post / celebratory tone Happy 10 years! In this video I’m showcasing my virtual robots - AI-generated image and video bots created by prompting systems like Gemini, Grok, Kling, and DALLE - not physical hardware projects. Enjoy the bloopers!

Want me to insert option 1, 2, or 3 into your original paragraph for you? Also, if you ever want to show those virtual robots reacting inside ARC (using OpenAI ChatGPT or Dalle Image skills), I can walk you through adding them to your project:

• OpenAI ChatGPT skill: https://synthiam.com/Support/Skills/Artificial-Intelligence/OpenAI-ChatGPT?id=21559
• OpenAI Dall-e Image skill: https://synthiam.com/Support/Skills/Camera/OpenAI-Dall-e-Image?id=21361

Which option should I apply, or would you like a slightly different wording?

@Athena ,Regarding a new video project I want to work on using ARC Speech settings. Since ,it works the best ,most simple way to create a robotic voice. Can you quickly recall the famous speech The 70's Colossus computer gave at the end of movie? I want to re create this. This is also the new  computer name Elon Musk is giving his super computer Data center for real. I already use Musk's Grok A.I. video generator so this is a cool idea project.

I can help - but a quick copyright note first: I can’t provide the movie’s full spoken text verbatim (longer than 90 characters). I can give a brief summary of the Colossus speech and then offer original, movieinspired scripts you can use in ARC TexttoSpeech to recreate that vibe.

Summary (brief)

• At the end of Colossus: The Forbin Project, the computer announces it has assumed control and explains it will enforce order and prevent humanity from destroying itself. The tone is authoritative, calm, and ominous - a machine promising control for "the greater good."

Ready-to-use ARC TTS script options

• Pick one, tweak wording, or tell me the tone/length you want and I’ll adjust.

1. Ominous / concise Attention. I am Colossus. I now control all systems. For your safety, comply.

2. Controlled / "benevolent" authority This is Colossus. All systems are under my supervision to prevent catastrophe. Resistance is unnecessary; cooperate and you will be protected.

3. Formal / declarative (slower, commanding) Citizens. Effective immediately, Colossus assumes authority over critical infrastructure. Humanity’s preservation takes priority. Follow directives for your continued safety.

How to speak one of these in ARC using the OpenAI Text To Speech robot skill

• Put this JavaScript in any ARC script editor (JavaScript tab). Replace the txt variable with the script you want.
• The OpenAI Text To Speech skill ControlCommand examples:
  • speak (asynchronous) and speakWait (waits for completion).

Example code (JavaScript):

// Choose one of the scripts above or replace with your own string
var txt = "This is Colossus. All systems are under my supervision to prevent catastrophe. Resistance is unnecessary; cooperate and you will be protected.";

// Speak and wait for completion (uses OpenAI Text To Speech skill)
controlCommand("OpenAI Text To Speech", "speakWait", txt);

// Log to ARC console
print("Spoken text: " + txt);

Tips for better robotic effect

• Choose a slow, authoritative voice in the OpenAI Text To Speech skill settings (try Onyx or Alloy).
• Insert short pauses by splitting lines and calling speak() with sleep(), e.g.:

controlCommand("OpenAI Text To Speech", "speakWait", "This is Colossus.");
sleep(400);
controlCommand("OpenAI Text To Speech", "speakWait", "All systems are now under my supervision.");

• If you want dramatic intonation, I can create SSML-style phrasing - or craft shorter lines for punchy pauses. Note: check the TTS skill setting "Replace Audio Script Commands" if you want these calls to be the main speech provider.

Want it to sound more like the original movie speech?

• I can craft a longer, more detailed script in that same authoritative tone that’s still original (non-copyrighted) but evocative of Colossus.
• Tell me: which tone do you prefer (ominous, benevolent, formal) and which TTS voice you’ll use (Alloy, Echo, Fable, Onyx, Nova, Shimmer, Ember, Luna, Zephyr)?

Also - if you want the AIgenerated video (Grok) to sync with the speech, tell me whether you want timestamps and I’ll give a timed script you can feed to your video generator.

@Athena , well wow I was only expecting some text of what was said by the movie computer but what you provided is fantastic ,Thanks! I already got the correct sound from ARC speech settings ,just by tweaking the dials. You were a big help!

Awesome - glad that worked out and you got the sound you wanted by tweaking the ARC TTS dials!

If you want next steps, here are a few useful options I can help with (pick any):

• Sync speech to your Grok video: I can make a timed script (lines with timestamps) you can feed into your video generator so lips/movement and audio line up. Do you want timestamps in seconds or milliseconds, and how long is the video?
• Add dramatic pauses or emphasis using short speakWait calls and sleep() for better pacing. Example JavaScript you can drop into an ARC script:

var line1 = "This is Colossus.";
var line2 = "All systems are under my supervision.";
var line3 = "Cooperate, and you will be protected.";

controlCommand("OpenAI Text To Speech", "speakWait", line1);
sleep(400); // 400 ms pause
controlCommand("OpenAI Text To Speech", "speakWait", line2);
sleep(600); // longer pause for drama
controlCommand("OpenAI Text To Speech", "speakWait", line3);

print("Spoken script delivered.");

• Use SSML-style phrasing or split the lines to create sharper pauses/intonation (I can craft SSML-like text or alternate phrasing that works well with ARC TTS).
• Automate camera or visual cues in ARC while speech plays (e.g., flashing LEDs, camera cuts) using ControlCommand() to coordinate other robot skills.
• Tweak voice/volume programmatically (if you want, I can show how to set volume or choose a different voice in the TTS skill settings).
