Human VS AI Transcription

Is there anything AI can’t do these days? Well yes, lots of things. But one thing it can do is record and transcribe things for you automatically. So you can have a phone call, and then see the transcription of what was said later on. Cool huh? Well, kind of. Because if we’re honest, AI audio transcription really isn’t that great.

OK maybe not literally, but the idea that your approach to something dictates the results you’ll get is something that’s been playing out for years, with thousands of business owners falling foul of it.
