Intended Uses

• TTS fine-tuning — e.g. XTTS v2, StyleTTS2, Matcha-TTS
• Voice cloning — reference audio for zero-shot / few-shot inference
• ASR evaluation — testing transcription on synthetic/game speech
• Research — studying non-human, robotic, or stylised speech patterns

Data Collection

Audio and transcripts were scraped from the Portal Wiki using scrape_glados_upload.py.

• Audio: direct .wav downloads from i1.theportalwiki.net
• Transcripts: parsed from inline <em> tags on each wiki voice-line page
• No audio processing applied — files are unmodified game assets
