This is so cool! I would love to hear what stavros ends up using it for – actually, in general I'd love to hear more about how folks are using voice recorders. It seems like now's really their moment as STT finally doesn't suck too bad and natural language can actually be turned into stuff.

I use it to talk to my LLM assistant! It's great, it's always there, always works, and it's very accurate, as you say.

I've been quite surprised, it even does Greek very well!

Maybe it's a silly question, but what are you using the assistant for? I love the idea of voice interfaces. Matt Webb's thing about distinguishing data and instructions by addressing "Diane" (https://interconnected.org/home/2025/03/20/diane) to work through a more substantive task by talking has some magic in it. And yet I've rarely gotten more use out of these things than, you know – toggling lights, setting timers. Plugging them into more meaningful integration seems really interesting.

It's a lot of tiny things, for example having all my info in one place when I go traveling, and being able to say "how do I get to the Airbnb from the airport". Yesterday I had the agent search for events in my city every week, find the ones I like and put them in a newsletter that it emails to me. I also had it look at my book history and ratings and recommend new books. Tracks my gym sessions, what restaurants I like and what I want to get next time, etc.

Nothing you can't live without, but it reduces the thousand little paper cuts of daily life by a lot.

I saw a Pebble Index 01 and I really wanted one, but I'm not known for my patience, so I made something almost as good.
