Is corespeechd burning your CPU? Read this.
A couple of days ago I found my MBP was running fan all the time. Usually it is silent, but not any more. A quick check on Activity Monitor showed, it is a process called corespeechd — consuming something like 60% of the CPU.
After a bit of research on Google, StackOverflow, Reddit & all other forums, below steps solved the problem.
By the way, read more only if you are not using Siri on your Mac.
Steps
- Disable System Integrity Protection (SIP)
- Restart
- Mount
/folder on read-write
# this is reset after next restart

sudo killall Finder
4. Rename corespeechd plist
cd /System/Library/LaunchAgents/sudo mv com.apple.corespeechd.plist com.apple.corespeechd.plist.bak
5. Enable System Integrity Protection
6. Restart for a silent mac!
