If you want, it's no skin off my back. This whisper voice to text that I have on my Android is working pretty well, but there will be similar errors in the future.
So far it's the best one I've found. I don't have to specify punctuation or anything. Basically what you're reading is exactly what it came out with. It beats the keyboard, which for some reason keeps putting C's and V's where I put spaces, and I have to go back and modify everything.
In that case I'll leave it because it may help someone else. Cool about the Android voice to text. Do you mean you can whisper and it works?
wisper is the name of the ai/tech that drives the translation. there are implementations for other platforms. i got one on Linux, but haven't really used it yet. it does work when there are other noises in the room.
This is an example of me using it in a noisy bar. The first paragraph was typed because I wasn't sure it would work. But it works fine.
Cool, thank you!
