Qwen-asr can easily transcribe live radio (see README) in any random laptop. It looks like we are going to see really cool things on local inference, now that automatic programming makes a lot simpler to create solid pipelines for new models in C, C++, Rust, ..., in a matter of hours.

Which is why long term current programming languages will eventually become less relevant in the whole programming stack, as in get the computer to automate tasks, regardless how.

		Assuming RAM prices will not make it totally unaffordable. Current situation is atrocious and big infrastructure corps seem to love it, they do not want independent computing. Alternatively they might build specialized branded hardware which people could only use for what corps allow them to do for nice monthly fee. Another problem is too much abstraction on input spec level. The other day I asked Claude to generate few classes. When reviewing the code I noticed it doing full scan for ranges on one giant set. This would bring my backend to a halt. After pointing it out to Claude it had smartened up to start with lower_bound() call. When there are no people to notice such things what do you think we are going to have?
