From the WER numbers alone it looks like a very small difference for English itself, but I've found WER to be a misleading assessment mechanism. Having extensively tested Whisper v2 large against other 'lower WER' models and

A few providers have done a variant of live transcription that's similar to how old-school providers do it, where they transcribe a short window (i.e. XXXms at a time) and this is definitely the easiest path. One such provider is Gladi

If you (or anyone reading this) have any interest in doing this, consider e-mailing me (e-mail in my profile) and I might have something very compelling for you. I journal like this all the time now and so does my team. :)

I think that the author is a little mixed up and is /actually/ saying that 'Reading is Objectively Superior to Listening as a Communication Method'. Writing != Reading and as someone building an app powered by dictation

You kinda can do this in Rust at the moment with async, in the sense of: https://docs.rs/async-stream/latest/async_stream/ So something like this, off the top of my head. It's not the most Rust-native co

To be more specific than the above: 1. Make sure you're using a model that isn't suffixed with `.en` (`base`, not `base.en). 2. Use `model.transcribe(your_input_audio, language='Japanese', task='translate')` ..

I do this too, and I’ve built some software for it just for myself. I’d love to chat and hear about how you use this! My email is in my profile, or I’m @tekacs on Twitter (and everywhere). :)

For folks' context, the new tool that's being discussed in the thread mentioned by the parent here is litefs [0], as well as which you can also look at rqlite [1] and dqlite [2], which all provide different trade-offs (e.g. rqlite

No? The author explicitly points out that there's a difference between the spoken and written case and complains that there's no written indicator. I'm speaking to that case.

The author bemoans that, unlike proper nouns, ‘improper nouns’ don’t carry any stylistic indicator in English to indicate that they are different from the baseline. In my past experience I’ve found that there is an indicator amongst some (t

Ha, that's good to know -- I've been enjoying using Vowel and was wondering what the in-call notes editor was powered by. Vowel is really slick too -- nice job! :)

Just so you know, I've used it since the early part of this year and found it to be robust and fully-featured (most functionality comes from Y.js after all), but definitely defer to them on how ready they consider it. :)

One thing that... might be useful depending on what exactly you're building here is https://hocuspocus.dev , which is an incredibly easy to use server for Y.js. It's written by the team behind https://tiptap.

Yeah as I understand it XTDB was built by Juxt after using Datomic for a long while, to make a different set of trade-off choices. Whenever one comes up, the other is likely to be mentioned close at hand: https://docs.xtdb.com&#x
