Tested out CSM (Conversational Speech Model) locally and it's really slow even on my RTX 3090. Check out this demo:

Anyone else noticed Claude 3.7 is aggressively helpful with coding projects? 😂

Me: "Could you help debug this project (attached files)?"

Claude: "Here, run this test, and I'll edit the project files to to reflect how I feel that test might go. " 3 minutes later "

Me: "Here are those test results"

Claude: "OH not what I was thinking! Let me refactor your project."
