AI4LAM Speech-to-Text WG, September 23: ASR models since Whisper

[Owen King]

The AI4LAM Speech-to-Text Working Group invites you to its next meeting on Tuesday, September 23 at 09:00 US-Pacific | 12:00 US-Eastern | 17:00 UK | 18:00 Central Europe | 03:00 +1 Canberra.

Our topic:  ASR models since Whisper

OpenAI released Whisper 3 years ago!  A lot has happened since then.  Stephen McConnachie (BFI National Archive) has agreed to talk a bit about some newer ASR models.  After hearing from Stephen, we'll proceed to some general discussion.  Come join us to discuss the state of the art!

In advance of the meeting (whether or not you can attend), please consider filling out this short, anonymous survey about what ASR models you've been using:  https://forms.gle/fjPNNLP1ecFg9DjA8 

If we get enough responses, we can discuss them during the meeting.
