The command "tts --list_models" is used to list the available text-to-speech (TTS) models.

In the context of natural language processing, TTS models are models trained to convert written text into spoken words. They take input text and generate synthetic speech as output, allowing the computer to "speak" the text.

By running the command "tts --list_models," you can obtain a list of the TTS models currently available on the system. It might include various pre-trained models with different characteristics, such as different languages, languages with different accents, or voices with different speech styles.

This command provides a convenient way to check the available options for generating speech using the TTS system in use. Once you obtain the list of models, you can then choose the appropriate one for your desired text-to-speech conversion.
