I’d also be interested to know what the impetus was for developing ghost-pepper, which looks relatively recent, given that Handy exists and has been pretty well received.

Extra bonus is that Handy lets add an automatic LLM post-processor. This is very handy for the Parakeet V3 model, which can sometimes have issues where it repeats words or makes recognition errors for example, duplicating the recognition of a single word a dozen dozen dozen dozen dozen dozen dozen dozen times.

Yep. Using Handy with Parakeet v3 + a custom coding-tailored prompt to post-process on my 2019 Intel Mac and it's been working great.

Once in a while it will only output a literal space instead of the actual translation, but if I go into the 'history' page the translation is there for me to copy and paste manually. Maybe some pasting bug.

I think it's the same reasoning for anything these days.

"You know what would be useful?" followed by asking your LLM of choice to implement it.

Then again for a lot of scenarios it's your slop or someone else's slop.

I think the only difference is that I keep my own slop tools private.
