Sirana<p>It seems some jobs' existence flies under the collective radar of society and audio transcription from interviews, public discussions and what not certainly seems to be one of these. Which means, nobody even notices that AI is taking away our whole industry, despite AI output often being far crappier as soon as someone has a dialect or uses uncommon terminology. </p><p>I appreciate people's rising awareness for accessibility in videos or podcasts or so, don't get me wrong, but who do you think are the people who transcribe audio manually? Healthy 20 year olds with no responsibilities who are capable of working full time in an office job or physical labour that pays much better than transcription?</p><p>Many people either do this additionally to something else, like translation, or are people who can only work part time for various reasons and can't just do anything else. Please don't throw us under the bus for a thing that's supposed to help others because it's so conventient to press a button in a program that burns the planet and shouts partial gibberish...</p><p><a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Transcription" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Transcription</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/NoAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NoAI</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/AudioTranscription" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AudioTranscription</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/Whisper" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Whisper</span></a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/ChatGPT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChatGPT</span></a></p>

BedastGPT<p>The enshittification of AI has lead to the choice of AI used by VLC to be groaned at. I even saw a post cross my feed of someone looking for a replacement for VLC.</p><p>VLC is working on on-device realtime captioning. This has nothing to do with generating images or video using AI. This has nothing to do with LLMs.</p><p>(edit: There's claims VLC is using a local LLM. It will use whisper.cpp, and not be using OpenAI's models. I don't know which models they will be using. I cannot find any reference to VLC using a LLM.)</p><p>While it would be preferred to use human generated captions for better accuracy, this is not always possible. This means a lot of video media is inaccessible to those with hearing impairment.</p><p>What VLC is doing is something that will contribute to accessibility in a big way.</p><p>AI transcription is still not perfect. It has its problems. But this is one of those things that we should be hoping to advance.</p><p>I'm not looking to replace humans in creating captions. I think we're very far from ever being able to do this correctly without humans. But as I said, there's a ton of video content that simply do not have captions available, human generated or not.</p><p>So long as they're not trying to manipulate the transcription using GenAI means, this is the wrong one to demonize.</p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Transcription" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Transcription</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/VLC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VLC</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/HearingImpaired" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HearingImpaired</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Deaf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Deaf</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Accessibility</span></a></p>

Debby<p>As a fan of local LLMs, I'd like to share an article about Whisper, the AI transcription tool I often use.
