[BUG] Fluid Intelligence is unusably slow #925

Description

@christhomas

Describe the bug

When I use fluidvoice, with the ai enhanced fluid intelligence enabled and I speak any length of sentence, when I release the hotkey, it takes around 5 seconds or even longer to appear in the text entry

When I delete the fluid intelligence model and speak, it's accurate and when I release the hotkey, the words appear in the textbox in the same second

It's amazingly fast

When I enable fluid intelligence, it's absolutely unusable. Sometimes the input doesn't appear at all and I have to speak a second or third time.

But when I turn it off. It goes back to being instantaneous, even if fluid intelligence does improve the text I finally get.

I've got an Macbook M3 Pro with 36GB of ram. When I have these various tests, my machine isn't really under any special load, or fans spinning etc, like I would expect from a laggy system.

Reproduction steps

Enable fluid intelligence, speak about ten words, measure the time: > 5 seconds
Disable fluid intelligence, speak the same sentence, measure the time: same second

Expected behavior

I expected that fluid intelligence would be maybe as fast, but a little slower. But in practice, it's unusable

Actual behavior

It's unusuably slow
