> The "local is too slow" argument doesn't hold up anymore if you have any GPU at all.
By "any GPU" you mean a physical, dedicated GPU card, right?
That's not a small requirement, especially on Macs.

I find the model works surprisingly well and in my opinion surpasses all other models I've tried. Finally a model that can mostly understand my not-so-perfect English and handle language switching mid sentence (compare that to Gemini's voice input, which is literally THE WORST, always trying to transcribe in the wrong language and even if the language is correct produces the uttermost crap imaginable).
I run 120M Parakeet model formt STT thing. Even that tiny model works much better than macos dictation these days.
