I love pushing these coding platforms to their (my? our?) limits!

This time I ported the new Qwen 3 TTS model to Rust using Candle: https://github.com/TrevorS/qwen3-tts-rs

It took a few days to get the first intelligible audio, but eventually voice cloning and voice design were working as well. I was never able to get in context learning (ICL) to work, neither with the original Python code, or with this library.

I've tested that CPU, CUDA, and Metal are all working. Check it out, peek at the code, let me know what you think!

P.S. -- new (to me) Claude Code trick: when working on a TTS speech model, write a skill to run the output through speech to text to verify the results. :)
