alt Hacker NewsThis demo is really impressive: https://huggingface.co/spaces/mistralai/Voxtral-Mini-Realtim...
Don't be confused if it says "no microphone", the moment you click the record button it will request browser permission and then start working.
I spoke fast and dropped in some jargon and it got it all right - I said this and it transcribed it exactly right, WebAssembly spelling included:

Thank you for the link! Their playground in Mistral does not have a microphone. it just uploads files, which does not demonstrate the speed and accuracy, but the link you shared does.
I tried speaking in 2 languages at once, and it picked it up correctly. Truly impressive for real-time.
Having built with and tried every voice model over the last three years, real time and non-real time... this is off the charts compared to anything I've seen before.
And open weight too! So grateful for this.
404 on https://mistralai-voxtral-mini-realtime.hf.space/gradio_api/... for me (which shows up in the UI as a little red error in the top right).
It can transcribe Eminem's Rap God fast sequence, really, really impressive.
Wow, that’s weird. I tried Bengali, but the text transcribed into Hindi!I know there are some similar words in these languages, but I used pure Bengali that is not similar to Hindi.
This model was able to transcribe Bad Bunny lyrics over the sound of the background music, played casually from my speakers. Impressive, to me.
I’ve been using AquaVoice for real-time transcription for a while now, and it has become a core part of my workflow. It gets everything, jargon, capitalization, everything. Now I’m looking forward to doing that with 100% local inference!
Not terrible. It missed or mixed up a lot of words when I was speaking quickly (and not enunciating very well), but it does well with normal-paced speech.

Doesn't seem to work for me - tried in both Firefox and Chromium and I can see the waveform when I talk but the transcription just shows "Awaiting audio input".
