How does real time makes sense in the first place for an algorithm that gets 1 minute of audio and gives you back 50s? You are gonna have to fill the gaps anyway with something not meaningful.
- staticautomatic 5y agoSilence is meaningful, but pretty awkward when not deliberate!
- laumars 5y agoTools like this are designed to remove awkward silences. What it sounds like the GP is after is something more like hiss and pop removal (to use an only vinyl analogy) and that’s a different and also simpler problem to solve. I’d wager there are already tools on the market for that.
- pokot0 5y agoVery insightful :). Now I need an AI to tell me when silence is deliberate or not. :)
- nmstoker 5y agoAn awareness of your point was precisely why I mentioned "quietening down verbal ticks" (ie 1 minutes gives you back 1 minute but with the ticks removed/muffled) To me this seems like it could be worthwhile even if it results in silence or less prominent umms and other filler - I've sat through enough conference talks by technically gifted people who I very much wanted to hear but who unfortunately make their talks much harder to follow due to the ticks. It might even help relax some nervous speakers if they knew any of these that creep in were being suppressed.
- pokot0 5y agoI understand now. Very niche, but I applaud the effort to give voice to people who have something to say, instead of those who know how to talk in public.
