- sawaruna 6y agoI don't use voice assistants so I don't know if these are common, but some of the examples in the list of commands[0] are interesting. >Ask about a webpage - Display or open information to the current page or website. >Example - What are people saying about this page? (Opens Reddit comments for a specific webpage or article) - What did this page used to look like? (Shows page history in archive.org) --- >Giving commands nicknames (experimental) - Create names or shortcuts for actions. > Example - Say "open new york times", then "Give that the name news" - news (will open nytimes.com) [0] https://mozilla-extensions.github.io/firefox-voice/lexicon.html https://mozilla-extensions.github.io/firefox-voice/lexicon.h...
- yorwba 6y ago> Audio from your voice request is sent to Mozilla’s Voicefill server without any personally identifiable metadata. > Voicefill sends the audio to Google’s Speech-to-Text engine, which returns transcribed text. We’ve instructed the Google Speech-to-Text engine to NOT save any recordings. Note: In the future, we expect to enable Mozilla’s own technology for Speech-to-Text which enables us to stop using Google’s Speech-to-Text engine. I was kind of hoping their homegrown speech-to-text engine had become good enough for production use. Disappointing to see that they still have to rely on Google.
