> I encounter discrepancies with AI generated captions very often. As in, I heard something and from context I know I'm right and the AI is wrong.

I've been noticing this as well. It's becoming a common problem. Also, many times I've noticed that if I hadn't heard the speech being captioned and only had the captioning to go by, I would have had little chance of correctly understanding what was actually said.



[Applause] on YouTube transcripts, short two or three syllable sentence fragments, and absolute nonsense are the only ones I’d be able to reliably detect sans audio. But doubt YouTube captions are state of the art given how poor it is.
