Being real, this is why I fucking hate the bullshit, corporate greed hype of LLMs and generative software. All the “bubble” shit? It tars all versions of the technology with the same brush.
This? This is exactly what it should be used for. And, ffs, earlier speech to text was really the same fucking thing in essence. Software that took input in the form of voice, compared it to a set of data, and made a best guess at what you meant. Yeah, the details are different, but it’s the same concept.
This? This is fucking awesome. Locally run, and doing a job that’s vital in accessibility, with the side benefit of being useful to others. Assuming canonical is being honest anyway.
But this kind of thing should be the way things are done.
This would have been better received if they just didn’t use AI in the name. Sure, it’s just using an LLM under the hood, but it’s running purely locally. It also betters Linux since it helps address an accessibility issue.

That’s why we should not call everything AI
But it is AI, so it should be called that. People should adjust their simplistic notions about the term instead
