I am moving full remote because dictation is such a better input mechanism for most of my AI interactions that I have become less efficient sitting in my open floorplan desk at the office because I cannot dictate there and the latency adds up. Typing is just achingly slow these days.
I feel like I can type faster than I can talk but I could be totally wrong?
I also feel this way, but more importantly, I feel like my sentences are more coherent when typed because typing allows for corrections and modifications of ideas. Do whispr people just … get coherent, finalized ideas out in a single shot without any misspoken words?
transcription gets post-processed by a LLM (with different styles, like based on prompts, so that it removes fillers, homophones, change the style, etc.
I recommend the youtube channel @afadingthought to see what people come up with (like v=283-z29TXeM).
They are not.
It's like a hidden curse of LLMs -- they're so good at parsing intended meaning from non-grammatically-correct language that we don't have to be very good at clear communication.
Eventually all LLMs will be controlled by humans uttering terse gutteral grunts. We will all become neanderthals, with machines that deliver our every whim.
