The OCR filter uses libtessract so I'm fine with it. Like I said, as long
as the actual code to do it is in an external library I don't mind.
Mozilla recently released Deep Speech (https://github.com/mozilla/DeepSpeech)
which does pretty much exactly speech to text and is considered to have the
most accurate one out there. Someone just needs to convert the tensorflow
code to something more usable.
