Funny that you mention it, a few months ago when updating stuff I got a new feature on my Android phone... Offline subtitle generation based on audio, just realtime generated from anything outputing sound on my phone.

A Google search suggests this might be an older feature - not sure if my phone didn't support it, or if I maybe just missed it, or if they added a more obvious button.

Google has a separate app for that stuff, called Private Compute Services. Right now it's nothing like an offline Google assistant replacement, but I thought it's really nice to have that stuff available without relying on internet access.

Did you try to turn off the internet to see if it actually works? That's pretty amazing thank you for sharing!
