Qwen3-ASR Swift: On-Device Speech Recognition for Apple Silicon I'm excited to release https://github.com/ivan-digital/qwen3-asr-swift, an open-source Swift implementation of Alibaba's Qwen3-ASR, optimized for Apple Silicon using MLX. Why Qwen3-ASR? Exceptional noise robustness โ 3.5x better than Whisper in noisy conditions (17.9% vs 63% CER). Features: - 52 languages (30 major + 22 Chinese dialects) - ~600MB model (4-bit quantized) - ~100ms latency on M-series chips - Fully local, no cloud API
