Babytalk brings offline speech recognition to ESP32 chips

Original: Show HN: Babytalk: Offline speech to text and text to speech on ESP32

Developer tlack has released Babytalk, an open-source project that runs offline speech-to-text and text-to-speech directly on the ESP32 microcontroller, a low-cost chip with limited memory. The release is drawing attention among hobbyists because voice features normally require cloud services or far more powerful hardware, and running both directions locally opens up cheap, private voice interfaces for embedded devices.

Why now: Running both speech-to-text and text-to-speech entirely offline on a cheap microcontroller is a notable technical feat that appeals to the maker and embedded developer community.
