Could you build this?

Partial Wiring together a local speech-recognition and translation model is achievable, but reliable real-time, low-latency translation on consumer hardware needs model optimization that vibe coding won't deliver.

What it would actually take: Combine a streaming ASR model (such as whisper.cpp or faster-whisper) with a local machine-translation model, and capture system audio on the desktop. The hard parts are keeping end-to-end latency low, segmenting speech into translatable chunks without losing context, and fitting the models on consumer hardware. This needs speech and ML inference-optimization expertise.
