I take it you haven't been following the field lately, have you? It is surprising because convnets just work better for speech recognition ([1] is the latest SOA). I'm guessing gated convolutional LMs are slower than RNN transducers when deployed on mobile. Can someone confirm? [1] https://arxiv.org/abs/1812.06864

From https://arxiv.org/abs/1812.06864 "On Librispeech, we report state-of-the-art performance among end-to-end models, including Deep Speech 2 trained with 12 times more acoustic data and significantly more linguistic data." Specifically they claim word error rates that are 1 to 2 percentage points lower, 3.44% on "clean" and 11.24% on "other".
