Memory Hog
I have 16G memory on my iMAC. I don't use siri, dictation, or voice control. Activity monitor shows dictation 5.89G, coreaudiod 1.49G and com.apple.SpeechRecognitionCore 1.10G. How do I get more memory back for other things?

EtreCheck is a simple little app to display the important details of your system configuration and allow you to copy that information to the Clipboard. It is meant to be used with Apple Support Communities to help people help you with your Mac.

Pastebin is a good place to paste the whole report...
Workable but harder for me to work with...the Note tool on the bottom of this editor's toolbar, as shown in the image, to copy and paste the output from EtreCheck.
Well 16 GB is not that much RAM, I’d suggest studying how to use Activity Monitor at https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201464
