Does anyone know of a speech to text (STT) converter for Puppy? Specifically Bionicpup or Fossapup with Firefox browser?

If online is ok then chrome browser extension, google docs > voice typing. Maybe also in google translate.

Another highly recommended on/off line app is DeepSpeech

I think about this subject.

It's relatively easy to get voice recognition online. Android almost coerces it. The hard part is maintaining privacy.

The best solution I have at the moment is Speech Recognition in Windows 7 offline.

I like old hardware & software for these kinds of functions, expecting a future of virtual machines.

If anyone has the privacy stipulation covered, that's good insight.

If you're online & don't care what Google & Microsoft do with your words, you're set.
