The latency on this (or lack thereof) is the best I've seen, would love to know more about how it's achieved. I asked the bot and it claimed you're using Google's speech recognition, which I know supports streaming, but this result seems much lower lag than I remember Google's stuff being capable of

That doesn't sound plausible. How can the LLM part know which speech recognition service is being used?

It's not entirely unlikely that the llm is informed exactly what it's source data is, with the hope that it can potentially make corrections to transcription errors

Or just because it's interesting and people might ask. I could imagine it being a hallucination, but it could also be an easter egg of sorts.

Apparently it uses the Web Speech API [1], not a specific service.

I didn't think low-latency high-quality voice chat would make such a difference over our current ChatGPT chat, but oh my, I think that really takes it to the next level. It's entering creepy territory, at least for me.

The latency on smarterchild is very fast, but it doesn't seem to be interruptible. The UI seems to be restricting me from even inputting input in between my input and the ai response?

I had no problem with “hold on a sec” and then “sorry, please continue”

I clicked on "Talk", but the textbox just says "Preparing to speak..." without doing anything else

It doesn't work for me on Firefox, but works on Vivaldi.

this crops up in my feed every now and then and it has vastly superior perf vs. ØAI’s ChatGPT iOS app or anything else I’ve found. truly outstanding. are you planning on developing it further and/or monetizing it?

This isn't mine, it's from sindarin.tech, they already have paid versions, with one plan being $450/50 hours of speech (just checked and it's up from 30 hours).
