Whisper is basically this, which is an Open AI product. Not enough people are realizing just how important Whisper is going to be.

Yes, I'm just now trying Whisper out. Yesterday evening I was writing a little tool to use its speech transcription, feed the transcribed text to ChatGPT API and then retrieve the response and have it spoken back to me via Microsoft Azure Neural Voices.

I didn't get it quite done yet but I think I got almost done in a few hours. It'll feel funny to leapfrog Google Home, Alexa and Siri like this in a rare opportunity lol.

It's easy to make though, so no money in it. It's already been made even so it's just hacking for fun. There's a Siri shortcut for ChatGPT too, already been made.

It's pretty wild how an amateur can make this however, and none of these big billion dollar companies have a product to do it.

Very strange feeling and moment in science.
