Ackshully... It should be: "AaaS".

This is starting to tick me off. Now you've got me all wound up!

Doesn't look so alone to me, there are some friendly fish right there!

For me, the article makes it seem like there's some new announcement that the FBI has put out about a newly discovered vulnerability. Turns out, the announcement is about vulnerabilities we've known about for a long time.

I understand, that definitely makes sense then.

This isn't an article about mistranslations.

This is an article focusing on how asking about US election questions in Spanish will give you answers that are for the wrong country, or just wrong in most cases when compared to asking the same question in English.

One example is that, if someone in Puerto Rico were to ask ChatGPT 4/Claude/Gemini/Llama/Mixtral a US Election question, it would respond with information for Venezuela/Mexico/Spain instead.

Same, I'd say it's way better than most other transcription tools I've used, but it does need to be monitored to catch when it starts going off the rails.

Whisper isn't a large language model.

It's a speech to text (STT) model.

Rather than making it illegal to use, people need to use these tools responsibly. If any of these companies are using almost any kind of AI/machine learning they need to include a human in the loop that can verify that it's working correctly. That way if it starts hallucinating things that were never said, it can be caught and corrected.

I've found that Whisper generally does a better job at translating/transcribing audio than other open source tools out there, so it's not garbage.. But it absolutely is a hazard if you're trying to rely solely on it for official documents (or legal issues).

As far as promotion goes... It's open source software, it's not being sold.

As someone who uses Whisper fairly often, it's obvious that they've trained off of a bunch of YouTube videos.

Most of the time it's very accurate, but there have definitely been a few times in long transcription sessions where it will randomly hallucinate that someone is saying "Don't forget to like and subscribe!" When nothing was said anywhere near that.

Looks like Apple barely won on the patent of some old charger and lost on almost everything else:

Masimo said in a statement that the company appreciated the jury’s verdict “in favor of Masimo and against Apple on nearly all issues,” and that the decision only applied to a “discontinued module and charger.”

“Apple primarily sought an injunction against Masimo’s current products, and the jury’s verdict is a victory for Masimo on that issue,” Masimo said.
