"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

I hate AI and I sometimes have issues with hearing. I honestly wish there were smart glasses and smart captions with disability-friendly, but anti gen AI features.

Speech-to-text or speech recognition can be a generative (transformer) model architecture, but there are a lot of models that are not. The transformer ones seem to be better in quality.

Non-transformer examples:

Coqui STT https://stt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

Kaldi https://kaldi-asr.org/models.html

Creating subtitles / captions requires some more programming to create the text file with the correct timings.
