> I asked the bot and it claimed you're using Google's speech recognition

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.
