I just used this to practice my Japanese and it was really helpful having a judgement free correction of my grammar. It definitely takes longer than English because it’s using more tokens but the feedback is very thorough. I wish I could make the pause before sending automatically a bit longer. (I know I can hold to do it manually but the automated send is nice.)

Does the audio go direct to chatgpt, or through a transcription model first?

I could see it being a bit inaccurate if the transcription silently corrects my error.

I’ve been using this for several weeks now and it’s replaced podcasts for me. I’ll just pick a topic and then ask for a summary and then ask clarifying questions. Other times I’ll just goof off. In one chat, I’m rewriting the Star Wars sequels movie by movie with ChatGPT. I’ve realized that I’m built to learn socially, and ChatGPT never tires of my questions or gets annoyed. One interesting story. My 15 year old kid…

How can you tell if ChatGPT is lying to you and what you're learning is total hogwash?

I imagine the stakes of rewriting the Star Wars films are sufficiently low that this risk is acceptable...

Me, as a meat popsicle, can you explain to me how the phrase “kind of” is not common? I feel like “kind of” is kind of a common adjective phrase, right?

You can entirely remove it from your speech and lose very little.

Currently OpenHermes2-Mistral-7B (via exllama2), OpenAI Whisper (via faster_whisper), and StyleTTS2 (uses HF Transformers). All PyTorch-based. I will probably update to the OpenHermes vision model when Nous Research releases it, so it'll be able to see with the webcam or even read your screen and chat about what you're working on! I also need to update to Whisper-v3 or Distil-Whisper, and I need to update to a newer…

This is why I think the personal Jarvis for everyday use won’t eventually be in the cloud. It can already be done on local hw as you are demonstrating and cloud has big downsides around privacy and latency and reliability. Like you said it’s difficult to keep up with and to me it feels very much like open source stuff might win for inference.

And yet of all things word processing and spreadsheets are going to the cloud, or even coding.

Not sure big players won't be pushing heavily (as in, not releasing their best models) for the fat subscriptions/data gathering in the cloud, even if I'd much rather see local (as in cloud at home) computing

As long as we're entertained, who cares?

Probably don't want to start quoting hallucinated facts!

Good thing podcasts never have false/misleading information on them...

If you're replacing a factual podcast with it, maybe you should care a little...

This is an absurd argument that you are just making for the sake of argument and you know it. There's a difference between someone getting things wrong and a LLM shamelessly making something up out of the whole cloth.
