🎙 Voice-Controlled Terminal Using Local STT and Pi Agent
A developer has introduced a tool called hns, which combines local speech recognition (faster-whisper-base) with the Pi coding agent. This allows for generating shell commands and asking questions about local files via voice, performing the entire data processing cycle completely on-device.
🌍 This proves that local open-source models (Whisper, LLM) can effectively replace cloud services in automation tasks, reducing latency and increasing security.
👤 Users gain the ability to control the terminal without typing, maintaining full control over data privacy and avoiding sending file contents to the cloud.
