💼 AI @ Speechify

[Tyler Weitzman @tylerweitzman]

Proud of the hard work we've done at SpeechifyAI to achieve the #1 voice model in the world at a lower cost than the competition! This is the era of AI where a consumer startup can quietly release a frontier model at a cheaper cost than other players.

[Cliff Weitzman @cliffweitzman]

For the last 5 yrs I've have kept the Mac app privately. Now you can get the Mac app! speechify (.) com/voice then pick download for Mac.

Like, repost, and comment "Speechify" to get Speechify Premium for free for 6 months. ❤️

I've used the mac app to listen to 300k+ words a week for 9 years and 13 yrs if we are counting my initial hacky version.

I've been using Speech to text on it for 4 years now. I first shared a zip file of the Speechify mac app with friends in 2016.

We've been prioritizing other platforms for the last 5 years but now finally you can use it too. Mac App Launches Today!

AND the mac app comes with super accurate and fast Voice Typing. Over the next year, we think voice typing will finally go mainstream. AI-enabled dictation has already started to become ubiquitous in medicine and pockets of tech across engineering, sales, and customer support. I've used it for 8+ yrs.

LLMs have the ability to polish writing in a way that wasn’t previously possible.

Speechify removes filler text like “umm” & “ahhs” and corrects any grammar.

Anyone can now dictate and then hit send without even reviewing what they've written. It's just that good.

I use the new Speechify Mac App with Voice Typing across Slack, iMessage, and Chrome, Notes, Docs, Words, etc

Once you used voice typing for a week, it's impossible to go back to normal typing. Especially if you're dyslexic or have ADHD like me.

Soon, you’ll be able to just say a prompt like “set meeting for tomorrow” and Speechify will draft your email, message it, and send the cal invite too.

Speechify will remember how to spell all of your colleagues names, your personal scheduling link, and more.

Excited to see Speechify serve professionals more deeply & continue executing on our vision of being the most useful voice AI assistant in the world across turning any text into audio, voice typing, AI podcasts & audio content, talking to Speechify & more.

@SpeechifyAI has over 1 million five star reviews across platforms, and dozens of high quality features: Today, we are launching a feature I've been pushing for over 7 years and is finally going live to production (I've been using it internally for more than 4 years) Speechify Voice Typing in our Chrome Extension!

You can download the Speechify Chrome Extension, start talking casually, and let Speechify type for you across Google Docs, Gmail, and anywhere else you write. No matter how fast you type you can get a 2-4x lift in typing speed this way just click the button or keyboard shortcut.

It also polishes your writing for you.

We’re also launching the ability to Talk to Speechify super fast about any website!

Speechify is like your own personal assistant who has already read everything you see and can answer your questions as you talk.

You can ask Speechify for advice on how to respond to emails for work, to quiz you on a school reading, and to summarize key takeaways from an article without having to read the whole thing.

Over the last year, Speechify has evolved into your go-to Voice AI Assistant.

As an applied Al research lab that's the largest consumer Voice Al company in the Apple, Google Chrome, and Android App Stores, we’ve doubled down on more ways to be useful to our users.

Speechify now reads anything out loud to you, creates hyper-personalized podcasts perfectly tailored to you based on your prompts, docs, or recommendations, and now it can also type for you and answer your questions.

ChatGPT and Gemini are great. But we know that our users, and a large segment of the population, want Voice AI to be front-and-center in their user experience – not hidden behind an extra tab or an afterthought.

Speechify is building the voice operating system to meet their needs.

Voice typing & our Voice AI Assistant will soon be available on iOS/Android, our Mac App, Windows, and more.

We’ll also soon be adding additional Voice AI agentic workflows. Our vision is for Speechify to make a doctor's appointment and then follow up if they don't pick up for you or call a store and ask if they have a certain item in stock.

There are so many people working on Voice AI for customer support right now – Speechify is empowering everyone in the world to have their own Voice AI assistant on the other end who works for you.

Doing some user research for my next side project.

How do you organize, share knowledge, and plan next steps with your team?

Especially curious for the 10 - 50 people teams.

@TrevTheeDev Debugging at the start 🙌

Ipython widgets are fun.

Would you use this? Looking for feedback

# automating software engineering

In my mind, automating software engineering will look similar to automating driving. E.g. in self-driving the progression of increasing autonomy and higher abstraction looks something like:

1. first the human performs all driving actions manually
2. then the AI helps keep the lane
3. then it slows for the car ahead
4. then it also does lane changes and takes forks
5. then it also stops at signs/lights and takes turns
6. eventually you take a feature complete solution and grind on the quality until you achieve full self-driving.

There is a progression of the AI doing more and the human doing less, but still providing oversight. In Software engineering, the progression is shaping up similar:

1. first the human writes the code manually
2. then GitHub Copilot autocompletes a few lines
3. then ChatGPT writes chunks of code
4. then you move to larger and larger code diffs (e.g. Cursor copilot++ style, nice demo here https://t.co/u8ueY0mGxZ)
5....
Devin is an impressive demo of what perhaps follows next: coordinating a number of tools that a developer needs to string together to write code: a Terminal, a Browser, a Code editor, etc., and human oversight that moves to increasingly higher level of abstraction.

There is a lot of work not just on the AI part but also the UI/UX part. How does a human provide oversight? What are they looking at? How do they nudge the AI down a different path? How do they debug what went wrong? It is very likely that we will have to change up the code editor, substantially.

In any case, software engineering is on track to change substantially. And it will look a lot more like supervising the automation, while pitching in high-level commands, ideas or progression strategies, in English.

Good luck to the team!

I deeply regret my participation in the board's actions. I never intended to harm OpenAI. I love everything we've built together and I will do everything I can to reunite the company.
