@nvidia's Nemotron 3.5 ASR is now available in MacParakeet! Latency feels pretty unreal. I've completely switched from Whisper to Nemotron for Chinese and Korean. Whisper v3 still has its place, because of the wider language coverage, and ofc, Parakeet is still the dominant default for english + european.
@dabit3@DevinAI We would love to onboard devin to building MacParakeet and add him to the contributor. Thus far, it’s been codex and claudd. It’s free and opensource and comes with lots of delight. Give it a try and if you felt the delight, I would greatly appreciate the 200 max plan!

@marclou This is the way. MacParakeet was developed ai-first. Cli surface was developed together with the gui so that agents can test directly, get fast feedback, and course correct.
