Turn Speech into Seamless Text

Tired of slow typing and endless edits? Wispr Flow lets you speak naturally and converts your thoughts into perfectly formatted text, saving you hours. 

Whether you’re crafting AI prompts in ChatGPT, Cursor, or v0, or simply writing emails and messages, Flow adapts to your style and context, ensuring every word is seamless.

Flow’s advanced voice recognition captures your tone, eliminates mistakes, and even offers features like auto-edits and command mode for enhanced productivity. 

We just started using Wispr’s Flow at AI for Work after yesterday’s ad run — and it has actually been one of the tools we see ourselves using in day-to-day operations.

Here’s what we noticed about it:

  • It totally removes filler words and even formats emails how we normally would (no idea how it does this, but it’s a cool feature)

  • No annoying obtrusive overlay on your screen — it’s just a tiny little dash at the bottom so you know when you’re dictating

  • We’ve been finding it saves us time when writing Slack messages, questions or prompts to AI models like ChatGPT, and emails (mind you, it has only been 24 hours, so we’re excited to see what else it will be useful for!

Could you soon work alongside robots?

Recent advancements by NVIDIA are setting the stage for a new era in robotics, where AI-enabled robots, including humanoids, are developed faster and more efficiently. With tools like the Isaac Lab framework and Project GR00T workflows, robotics innovation is accelerating at a remarkable pace.

Key takeaways

  • NVIDIA Isaac Lab, a new open-source framework, allows scalable training for robots of all types, from humanoids to collaborative robots.

  • Project GR00T provides six specialized workflows, helping developers tackle complex humanoid capabilities like dexterity, mobility, and perception.

  • Cosmos tokenizer offers up to 12x faster video processing, supporting high-quality visual reconstructions critical for building world models.

  • NeMo Curator’s advanced pipeline manages large-scale data, enhancing the quality and efficiency of video processing.

  • NVIDIA’s collaborations, including with Hugging Face, aim to boost open-source robotics research and community learning resources.

Our thoughts

These tools are a game-changer for robotics, enabling faster development and improved robot capabilities. The future of AI-driven robots working in dynamic environments is arriving faster, thanks to NVIDIA’s (among others) continued innovations.
