The "Speed of Sound" app by @zugaldia, once you set up a custom global keyboard shortcut that doesn't conflict with GNOME's, is pretty amazing: https://flathub.org/en/apps/io.speedofsound.SpeedOfSound

This is the first time I experience reliable speech recognition for #dictation on the desktop, particularly on #Linux! Until now I had given up on that being a possibility.

Works really well in English. It struggles with French, but who doesn't?!

새 모델이 성능 대비 크기 효율이 매우 뛰어나다고 소개하며, 지난 12개월간의 피드백을 반영해 추론 능력, 멀티모달 이해(OCR·음성 인식·객체 탐지), 긴 컨텍스트, 에이전트 기능 등을 크게 강화했다고 밝혔습니다. 구체적 모델명은 없지만 기술 업데이트 성격이 강합니다.

The team cooked a super impressive model, specially for the sizes! We've incorporated all the feedback from the last 12 months: thinking, expanded multimodal understanding (OCR, speech recognition, object detection), longer context, agentic, and more! https://t.co/llozjYtrkJ

의료 상담 음성인식에서 범용 ASR의 한계를 보완하기 위해, Universal-3 Pro 위에 동작하는 ‘Medical Mode’를 소개했다. 단일 파라미터로 활성화하며, 의료 용어 인식에 최적화된 보정 단계로 특정 약물명 같은 전문 용어 오인식을 줄이는 것이 핵심이다.

General-purpose ASR: 95%+ accuracy on a clinical consult. Also general-purpose ASR: gets "hydrochlorothiazide" wrong every time. Introducing Medical Mode — a correction pass on top of Universal-3 Pro optimized for medical entity recognition. Enable it with one parameter.

임상 워크플로우용 Medical Mode가 공개되었습니다. 일반적인 음성인식 정확도가 높아도 임상에서는 약물명 같은 핵심 토큰 오류 때문에 실사용이 어렵다는 문제를 해결하려는 기능입니다.

Medical Mode is now available for clinical workflows. We built Medical Mode because a transcript that's 95% accurate can still be unusable in a clinical setting. Errors in general-purpose ASR are often concentrated on exactly the tokens clinicians care about most: drug names,

Hands on with AI audio generation: GAI voice, music, and sound effects

This is the second post in a series exploring the multimodal possibilities of generative AI. This series will take a detailed, hype-free look at text, image, audio, video, and code generation and explore the creative potential as well as the ethical concerns of GAI. Although Generative AI isn't a new technology, it's definitely been having a hype moment since the release of ChatGPT in November 2022. Unfortunately, the focus has been squarely on the text-based chatbot at the exclusion of […]
