From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Anyone using "Speech Note" (speech to text) with good results? (lemmy.ca)

I've been using Speech Note (github link) for months, but it often gets things wildly wrong.

I thought it was my mic, so I got one that's crystal clear. I also tried a ton of different models, and other than being slow (or fast), their accuracy is usually pretty similar.

But I'm still needing to take a lot of time to edit the results, and I wonder if there's something I should be doing to get better results.

On other speech-to-text platforms (like Futo keyboard on Android), the results are fast and very accurate. I have a hard time believing that Speech Note can't be as good.

Can any other users share their experience?

I've used it for a short while to test it out. Accuracy was pretty good, as was correct punctuation. Response time also good.

It's using my Nvidia GPU to do the LLM thing, so that may be the difference.

This could be!

Interestingly enough, I was playing around with LLama, as they have speech to text to interact with their chat bot, and it converts in near real-time with very good accuracy. So I do know that things can be fast and accurate, but I wish it was in Speech Note. LOL

For now, I may just to STT through my phone on a shared document with my laptop.
