Feb 24 18:41:35 <Anirban> jkridner: Regarding the speech to text part in Speak and Spell, I am thinking of using pocketsphinx library in python, as it provides for offline speech recognition, unlike google API for speech recognition
Feb 24 18:42:27 <Anirban> Or will using cloud services be okay?
Feb 24 19:05:47 <Anirban> jkridner: I am feeling that a major improvement that can be made on the previous Speak and Spell application is to include a chatbot as the main application
Feb 24 19:06:37 <Anirban> In this way the learning process can be a bit more interactive and modernized. What's your take on this?
Feb 24 19:09:38 <Anirban> Any review from others is also welcome
Feb 25 01:00:41 <jkridner[m]> needs to work without cloud services.
Feb 25 01:01:57 <jkridner[m]> not sure what a chatbot would do different.
