Why does it only work for some videos?
- sholladay 2y agoIt is probably AI with suboptimal training, despite the massive dataset available to them. It might even just be conventional speech-to-text, which can struggle with accents and poor acoustics, etc.
- sltkr 2y agoYouTube already generates transcripts of uploaded videos (though not super accurate ones). A simple and straightforward implementation would just pattern match in the transcript text. No need for fancy AI, on top of whatever technology powers the transcription feature.
- hagbard_c 2y agoIt will be the STT they use for their automatic captioning so it should be as accurate as whatever that produces. It would be the height of inefficiency to do a separate STT run over the entire audio just for this gimmick.
