https://voxtype.io/ https://voxtype.io/ https://tryvoiceink.com/ https://tryvoiceink.com/ There's so many of these, at this point I've seen 10 clones make the front page each time as if there never existed local only options before. Also whisper is pretty outdated vs parakeet

It's because vibe coded apps have flooded the internet. This one is no exception. The feedback loop is now real: LLMs train from github on their own produced slop which they feed into the apps people build and publish on github to show off their "skills". In 2 years from now LLMs will become dumber and dumber as the rate of quality code vs. slop will be greatly imbalanced so, naturally, the more slop you have the more probable is that the LLM will use it for its answers. The death of software engineering is real.

  I’ve been a software dev for 15 years. Def not trying to show off my skills This is just a little side-project. I have no plans to monetize it. Totally - much of this is vibecoded. It’s been fun building and customizing this for myself rather than paying wisprflow, and thought other people might find it useful

    Sorry about that, didn't mean to attack the person behind it. But anyone can build such an app within a day by prompting Claude. I think what I was more alluding to was the engineering value such a project brings. But once again, sorry about the messaging.

  That model collapse argument assumes pre-training teams are just scraping raw web garbage without curation.

  the loop is going to be interesting as we produce orders of magnitude low signal code, how do Labs comb through everything to train on the true contributions since last training run? I wonder if one way to monetize certified "skill" will be to syndicate / license your provably well software engineered / tasteful AI engineered code back to the Labs for a fee

Thanks! Actually starting to move over to a moonshine model. The parakeet models start at ~0.6b params, which adds a lot of startup overhead. Also yeah definitely a ton of them out there. They’re fun to build! Glad to see many other people take it upon themselves to build little local, private utilities.
