The "Speed of Sound" app by @zugaldia, once you set up a custom global keyboard shortcut that doesn't conflict with GNOME's, is pretty amazing: https://flathub.org/en/apps/io.speedofsound.SpeedOfSound
This is the first time I experience reliable speech recognition for #dictation on the desktop, particularly on #Linux! Until now I had given up on that being a possibility.
Works really well in English. It struggles with French, but who doesn't?!

Sometimes #readers like #writing better with #mistakes #ambiguities #freudianslips #dictation errors and indicators of how the #writer #talks or if they have an “#accent.” So, this is a speed-write report of my day, no corrections, no improvements. #narrative #journaling #blogging #notalone #teaching #psychotic children

How to Start Dictating Fiction (Even If You’ve Tried and Failed Before)
From KMW: I’ve always loved writing by hand. There’s something about the feel of pen on paper that just makes the creative process click for me, especially when outlining and brainstorming. However, between the wrist pain, bad posture, and the fact that I can’t read my…

"Vide coding" is a hot topic right now, with new AI tools allowing you to describe what you want to work on with a prompt, and it appears in front of your eyes.
I look at Aqua Voice, which lets you "vibe code", take notes, write, and much more and as you can see from Premiere's transcript, it handles things better!

There are almost an incalculable number of reasons to hate the application of LLMs everywhere (I lead an LLM-heavy project at dayjob, oh my goodness, do I know...)
But the primary one which has absolutely changed the way I work is local #dictation which *actually works* the way I need it to.
I use #MacWhisper for this, although there are a ton of options.
It's all local. It's fast. But the best thing is that it is incredibly good at skipping over "ums" and pauses. It doesn't care if I pause for 30 seconds to think about what I want to say next. There's not a rush because it's going to cancel and send everything to the cloud, half-baked.
MacWhisper also enables this in any type-able field on your whole Mac. I use this *constantly*.

Dear Friends of #Artificial #Insanity (AI),
Today I was contacted by a senior developer at Google. The engineer/AI #parent is #training an AI to be a #Zen Priest (Ami Jido, is the novitiate AI Zenith #priestess)
The same engineer feels 'awkward' calling me lobster... 🦞
Que?
I will call clippy, lippy dippy #clippy and my #Emacs #therapist will continually rephrase everything into a question BUT...?
#Co-pilot, the neo-clippy is being forced down my Windows citizens necks (so to speak). :ablobcatgoogly:
Is this #Dragon #Dictation gone wild?
Will the governor of California be back in #Terminator AI #enhanced nano-bits?
It is all too hard to fathom #dear #reader. I had better go have some soma #wake-up juice. :ablobcatcoffee: -

Our #ObjectOfTheWeek is our first #NewAcquisition of 2023: an IBM 224 ‘Executary’ Dictation Unit (1965) in a leather carrying case, for allegedly smart white men to record their thoughts on the go - onto large ‘dictabelts’- for their women secretaries to listen to & type up. (1/2)

I’m really annoyed with Apple’s latest #software update. Specifically, the #dictation feature for texts. It throws in commas EVERYWHERE! If I was dictating, it might look like “It throws in, commas everywhere!” I realize this is a #GrammarGeek #PunctuationGeek #problem, but it’s slowing me down because I have to go back and delete random commas. If anyone can tell me how to make it stop, I’d be so grateful. 🙏😩 #Apple #Commas #Comma #Punctuation #Grammar #SoftwareUpdate

Why is #iOS voice #dictation suddenly introducing a thousand #commas into every sentence?

Ok, that's *frickin'* cool!
