Too bad Chrome stopped supporting the web speech-to-text API. But I guess it overwhelmed Google's network/servers!? I remember back in Windows XP? There was speech recognition, where you first had to read a bunch of text in order to train it. It didn't use a online service afaik. And it was decent. With today's hardware it should be possible to do speech to text on the client! eg. without sending the audio to the cloud for processing!
- janimo 7y agoWhen did Chrome stop supporting web speech to text?
- z3t4 7y agoIt worked for me until recently. So a few months back... for android apps you need an app key, but there is no way to do that for a web app afaik, maybe if you used the google api instead of the standard web api. But i prefer platform independency and privacy over quality.
- rezonant 7y agoWeb speech to text is still available on Chrome... https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/demos/speech.html https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/demos/speech.html
- z3t4 7y agoI get a cryptic error message that just says "network", others seem to have the same problem. Does it work for you?? Here's another demo that shows the error message at the bottom: https://mdn.github.io/web-speech-api/speech-color-changer/ https://mdn.github.io/web-speech-api/speech-color-changer/
