This is so cool! I was just speaking to a non-technical family member about privacy concerns around using "OK Google" and the like. They responded inquiring about "private" alternatives, to which my answer was "I'm not aware of good ones that give you that level of accuracy and convenience."
Perhaps this development along with continued optimization and device compute power increases will lead us into a near-future where things like Mycroft devices and cellphones could have local-only speech-to-text and translation capabilities which are accurate even with environmental background noise variations encountered IRL.

Great work OpenAI team!
