#2How does this compare with Snips.co which can do offline speech recognition on a Rapberry Pi 3?
Coyld this be used to train a model/engine that can be used that way?

The model we released today is not yet optimized for smaller devices like that, but our plan is to make it usable on targets like the RPi3.

I can't find exact numbers on Snips.ai, but generally there's a linear relation between the size of the inference model in RAM and the accuracy it can obtain.
I'd have to assume DeepSpeech outperforms anything running on a RasPi3, at least for LVCSR. It hits 93.5% accuracy on Librispeech, which I've never seen from any offline recognition models.

Are you releasing any prebuilt models, I searched but couldn't find any, so people can go and play with your work without training?
Edit: NM found it under releases: https://github.com/mozilla/DeepSpeech/releases.

#7Awesome, we're so close to having a speech-to-text system I can trust.
I really wish Mozilla would release a keyboard app for Android. It would instantly be the single most trusted keyboard available.

Regarding Android keyboards, it is horrific that Google keyboard sends all your key presses, except passwords, to them.

#9I am very grateful for this release from Mozilla, and more generally for the broad vision of their effort.
As time passes, the quest for openness and freedom in software moves higher up in the stack. Thanks to the latest ~30 years of effort, we basically came to a point in which we have free OSes, basic infrastructure, building tools, end-user applications.
In the last ~10 years we changed paradigm: autonomous desktop computing progressively transitioned to mobile, with a lot of functionality offloaded to "the cloud".
What I feel is needed, going forward, is working towards building a viable free replacement for these distributed services. DeepSpeech is a step in the right direction.
Edit: just speaking about SW, here. HW is worth a different topic, and probably poses even more challenges.

#10Does this foreshadow a day when Firefox starts spying on what I'm talking about?
