sleepysnooze Microphone for the Assistant doesn't work. I use Brave browser on desktop. The microphone works just fine with other apps and other websites. I expect what I said to be written down.
jacobwinters Assistant is using the Web Speech API for transcription. SpeechRecognition isn't supported on Brave (though it sounds like they may be working on it). We try to hide the microphone button in browsers that don't support SpeechRecognition (e.g. Firefox). It shows up in Brave because our feature detection code sees that window.webkitSpeechRecognition is defined. (It is, in fact, there; it just doesn't work when you try to use it.) For now we'll add a special case to hide the microphone button on Brave. Will revisit once they have an implementation of SpeechRecognition.
Thibaultmol Q: how is this in the Kagi mobile app? because the microphone button does nothing for me in the app when i switch to Assistant there
jadams9 I also have this issue with chromium in debian. I tried out the speech recognition demo at: https://mdn.github.io/dom-examples/web-speech-api/speech-color-changer/ It does receive the onspeechend event when I stop talking. It sometimes receives an onerror result with "no-speech" but mostly doesn't ever get the error or the result callback. I had never used speechrecognition before so I was a bit confused by kagi assistant as my microphone works fine for any website. Maybe if kagi doesn't get a result back after onspeechend, it could show an error message that speechrecognition isn't working?
