As a Mac user, am I missing something? macOS has Dictation built-in, when you short press F5 it should start transcribing your spoken words into text in real time. It even does non-English languages.
- luigi23 9mo agoit's trash if: - you're not a native speaker or have accent - using airpods mic - surroundings is noisy - use novel words like 'claude code' - mumble a bit
- d4rkp4ttern 9mo agoBesides being trash as others said, there’s a trade off with real time transcription word by word - there’s no opportunity for an AI to holistically correct/clean up the transcription
- SkyPuncher 9mo agoBut, OSX does come back and fix things.
- d4rkp4ttern 9mo agoYou mean, after displaying each word as it is spoken, then OSX goes back and fixes what’s been displayed? I think I’ve seen it fix one or two recent words, but I guess you’re saying it could fix the entire sentence as well. I didn’t know that
- SkyPuncher 9mo agoYea, I use it daily for getting my thoughts into Claude. I often see it rewriting sentences it’s confused on.
