Whisper has been one of the few AI technologies that has been totally life-changing. When I tried out Whisper for the first time, it had probably been a decade since I first experimented with speech-to-text software and expected that not much would have improved. Qualitatively it's such a leap over what came before it that it almost feels like a different product class. My only criticism of Whisper is that there isn't a greater variety of clients supporting it, especially in the realm of Android tools. Since discovering it, I've adopted just about every whisper technology that I can and spent most of my day voice typing now.
Another great product from OpenAI. Works pretty accurately for different languages.
