To use dictation in VS Code, you no longer need to install the VS Code Speech extension. The built-in transcription service works in chat inputs, text editors, and the integrated terminal, with live text and controls suited to each surface. A single speech session and microphone selection are shared across all three surfaces, which prevents overlapping recordings and keeps dictated text in the intended location.

Built-in dictation uses the private, offline Nemotron model. The model downloads on first use and keeps audio on your device.

Use `setting(dictation.showTranscript)` to control whether the live transcript appears while you dictate. With `setting(dictation.experimental.llmCleanup)` enabled, Copilot refines your transcript as you speak by adding formatting and removing filler words. Transcript text is sent to a language model for cleanup. If cleanup is unavailable, VS Code keeps the raw transcript.
