The laptop I recorded that demo on has a high end i7, which was
operating at 100% on all 8 cores (it can work with much lower CPU usage
if CUDA is available though); so even when mobile processors get to an
equivalent performance level it'd be terrible for battery life. The only
exception would be if phones started shipping with CUDA capable
processors (nVidia do have some mobile oriented CUDA capable chips, but
they're not widely used at the moment). So unfortunately for the
foreseeable future the most practical solution for mobile systems is to
have a CUDA backed server processing requests remotely I'm afraid.

Title:
  Add speech input, voice input, dictate function for keyboard

Status in ubuntu-keyboard:
  New
Status in ubuntu-keyboard package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Typing on a mobile device is tedious. In some situations it's
  advantageous to dictate some text, use speech input that is translated
  to text (for texting, for writing documents, tasks, emails, etc.).

  A dictate function should be available in a integrated fashion with
  the keyboard, everywhere on Ubuntu Touch where text input is needed.

  Details
  =======

  This could be implemented as an integral feature (as in iOS, I
  believe) or via a pluggable API (on Android, I believe).
