As you might have observed if you visited my official podcast site, The Pulp Writer Show, recently I have employed a transcriptionist to generate transcripts for the show.<\/p>\n
She uploads the MP3 of the episode into an AI transcription service, and then listen to the episode while reading over the AI-generated transcript to fix any mistakes the AI might have made.<\/p>\n
As it turns out, there are a LOT of mistakes. (This is a good reminder that if you rely on AI transcription without having a human look at it first, you might be in a lot of trouble down the road.) The bald fact is that while AI transcription has come a long way, it still isn’t terribly good.<\/p>\n
Here’s one significant example. My podcast is called the “Pulp Writer Show,” and so at the start of every episode, I saw “welcome to the Pulp Writer Show.” The AI sometimes interprets this in creative ways.<\/p>\n
Here are just some of the other things the transcription AI thinks the show is called:<\/p>\n
Pallbearer Show<\/em> I have to admit while “The Bull Rider Show” does sound more entertaining than what I actually do, and getting The Pope as an interview guest would be quite a coup, I’m afraid the transcription AI has a ways to go.<\/p>\n -JM<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As you might have observed if you visited my official podcast site, The Pulp Writer Show, recently I have employed<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":14869,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[94],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19046","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-pulp-writer-show"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pZ6ri-4Xc","jetpack-related-posts":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/BNPulpWriterShow2022Cover.jpg?fit=1000%2C1000&ssl=1","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19046","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=19046"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19046\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19059,"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19046\/revisions\/19059"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/14869"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=19046"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=19046"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.jonathanmoeller.com\/writer\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=19046"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
