These posts explain what is real about it and what is not.<\/p>\r\n<p>The write-ups here look at the models that actually fit in a tab: quantised transcription models, small summarisation models, sentiment classifiers, and background-removal networks. What gets downloaded on first use and how big it is. Why the first run takes twenty seconds and every run after that takes two. Where a 40 MB in-browser model is genuinely good enough, and where you would be kidding yourself.<\/p>\r\n<p>There is also the privacy angle, which is the whole point: a transcription that never leaves your laptop cannot be logged, subpoenaed, or used as training data. That is a real difference from pasting the same audio into a cloud service, and it is worth understanding rather than taking on faith.<\/p>\r\n<p>Useful if you are weighing an offline tool against an API, or if you have used the <a href=\"https:\/\/schoolict.net\/tools\/browser-ai-models-directory\/\">Browser AI Models Directory<\/a> and want to know which of those models is worth your bandwidth.<\/p>\r\n<p>No hype, no benchmarks lifted from a press release.<\/p>","link":"https:\/\/schoolict.net\/tools\/ai-assistant\/","name":"AI assistant","slug":"ai-assistant","taxonomy":"category","parent":0,"meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/schoolict.net\/tools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories\/28","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/schoolict.net\/tools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/schoolict.net\/tools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/category"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/schoolict.net\/tools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts?categories=28"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
