One of the things that came in discussions with the group involved in building the tool was that, the mics on our smart phones are usually good and as such the audio input delivered to the CloudASR (Where speech to text happens) is good. Perhaps similar good mic quality may be needed for other devices. I'm hoping the applications of this proliferate to all public places. And also transliteration rolls in slowly for language to language. that will be a huge game changer. Also, the team deliberately decided not to support saving of the transcripts in accordance with the privacy laws concerns globally. Regards, Bharat
