I forget where I read it, but apparently this is being pushed to replace or augment court stenography. Apparently, there is more demand for court recorders than stenographers to fulfill (not sure if this is true, but that’s the claim), so this option is being proposed as the AI dictation requires less training than stenography.
It's a different tool, but for much the same end. I want to say it's more because the device is cheaper than a typical stenography machine would cost, but I don't know that for sure.
So they know their products would be useless in a noisy environment? They can't pick out the voice they need like an actual human being can in a crowd (excluding some with hearing difficulties)?
Instead of the tech of RecDep of 1984, we get the SlopShop.
This is how you get Guild Navigators, you dont want that do you?
Well, we've always known that the internet is a series of tubes.
Please don’t show this to my boss.
What the fuck did I just read?
Stick the other end in someone's butthole and, boom, you got the e-human centipede!
Hahhaha you misunderstand to whom you are speaking. Give me my coding plague trough immediately.
Holy shit they're real
I think stenographers in courts are already using them.
would be the funniest gas chambers yet
