# July

AI came firmly into my life because I started creating a prototype of
a speech recognition application for Android. So far, I have implemented
both Speech-to-text and Text-to-speech.

Speech-to-text is powered by [Vosk][vosk] and Text-to-speech by
[Sherpa-Onnx][sherpa]. Both libraries work on-device without sending data
to a server.

# August

I'll integrate an LLM between STT and TTS to enable the application to provide
voice consultations based on the provided dataset.

P.S. I publish weekly reports in the [TG channel][tg].
