It's worth mentioning Talon[0] here, which is a system for offline voice control as well, with great python-based scripting (and also supports eye tracking, though I haven't used it myself).<p>Using your computer or programming with it works like a charm, with some interesting and impressive projects based on it coming out as well, like Cursorless[1].<p>There's a great strangeloop talk[2] demonstrating talon and the actual state of voice coding, which is how I discovered it (hint: it's much better than you'd expect, and straightforward to learn at that).<p>[0]: <a href="https://talonvoice.com/" rel="nofollow">https://talonvoice.com/</a><p>[1]: <a href="https://github.com/cursorless-dev/cursorless">https://github.com/cursorless-dev/cursorless</a><p>[2]: <a href="https://youtu.be/YKuRkGkf5HU" rel="nofollow">https://youtu.be/YKuRkGkf5HU</a><p>Disclaimer: not affiliated, just a happy occasional user
This is soo needed.<p>All big techs use of voice has so far required Internet access and is creepy. Googles is apawling in that it changes so things that did work, stop working.<p>What voice needed was for humans to adjust a little to make the computer work easier.
e.g. "Computer" "file save"
is much more efficient all round than sending off audio to the bork for AI to try work out what it means.
I like this a lot. This is built upon Vosk [0], open source voice recognition. I must try it for some of my own projects!<p>[0] <a href="https://alphacephei.com/vosk/" rel="nofollow">https://alphacephei.com/vosk/</a>
Impressive, I'm looking forward to seeing more of this project. Did you draw inspiration from Talon? There are a lot of similarities when it comes to the voice commands.
Interesting project for providing better accessibility!<p>Reminded me a bit of those scenes on Blade Runner where Deckard is asking the computer to zoom in a certain area and enhance image :D
