This is a couple of years ago, but I still get inquiries when I use automated transcription during a talk. Specifically, what I use (and sometimes show) is Google's audio transcription, which is available in the voice recorder on Google Pixel phones. It types out what I'm saying as I speak. My own experience is that it is quite good, though it needs to better recognize the end of sentences. You can also try voice typing in Google Docs. This article offers a brief description and reference for more detail. Google's audio transcription is also available as a cloud service (more). In addition, Google's voice translation is available on Chrome and is still in early stages of development.
