Warning message from Tortoise TTS

[georgezlei]

Why is this warning printed when running Tortoise TTS? Can they be ignored?

Some weights of the model checkpoint at jbetker/wav2vec2-large-robust-ft-libritts-voxpopuli were not used when initializing Wav2Vec2ForCTC: ['wav2vec2.encoder.pos_conv_embed.conv.weight_g', 'wav2vec2.encoder.pos_conv_embed.conv.weight_v']
- This IS expected if you are initializing Wav2Vec2ForCTC from the checkpoint of a model trained on another task or with another architecture (e.g. initializing a BertForSequenceClassification model from a BertForPreTraining model).
- This IS NOT expected if you are initializing Wav2Vec2ForCTC from the checkpoint of a model that you expect to be exactly identical (initializing a BertForSequenceClassification model from a BertForSequenceClassification model).
Some weights of Wav2Vec2ForCTC were not initialized from the model checkpoint at jbetker/wav2vec2-large-robust-ft-libritts-voxpopuli and are newly initialized: ['wav2vec2.encoder.pos_conv_embed.conv.parametrizations.weight.original0', 'wav2vec2.encoder.pos_conv_embed.conv.parametrizations.weight.original1']
You should probably TRAIN this model on a down-stream task to be able to use it for predictions and inference.

Yes they can be ignored. You can remove all the code that loads wav2vec in the first place it isn't doing anything that most people use.
