Unspoken – Offline voice-to-text for macOS that never leaves your machine

Hey HN,I built Unspoken because I was mass-sending voice messages instead of writing — and realized my voice was already writing better than my fingers ever could.The problem? Every dictation tool I tried shipped my audio to someone else's server.What it does: Press a shortcut, speak, get formatted text. System-wide, works in any app.Your audio never touches a network interface. No account, no...

In my opinion to really lift off here you need to make sure we can use these agents in production. That means the complete supply chain has to be considered. The deployment part is the heavy part and most people can run it locally. So if you close that gap people will be able to mass adopt. I am totally fine if you monetize it as a cloud service but give a full docs from code, test monitoring to deployment. And one more thing. Show what the framework is capable of. What can I do. Lots of videos and use cases here. Every single second needs to be pushed out.
Re:OpenAI to buy AI startup from Jony Ive on Thursday May 22, 2025 @05:53AM (#44060456)
OpenAI will pay most of the deal with an inflated evaluation. It could be that Jony wakes up one morning and finds OpenAI back at the ground. Sam is a master hype and inflation. He has cracked the code to generate free money and pays the companies with OpenAI equity.
Why forking and use open codex when the original OpenAI opened it for multiple models? Just trying to understand.
