G’Day World #68 (MP3 – 8.8MB – 24min)

LISTEN TO THE PODCAST HERE

Alex Laats, the CEO of Podzinger, joins me today to talk about the launch of their new podcast search service. As you know, I’ve been pretty skeptical about the value of these podcast “speech-to-text” services in the past, but I think today Alex was able to convince me of their worth.

However, their service is currently designed to recognize only North American accents, so it HATES this show. 🙂

Check out a part of its transcription of a recent episode:

Now, I know I can talk shit sometimes, but hopefully I make a little more sense than this. But, of course, most of the podcasts out there come from North America, so it’s a good business decision and Alex assures me they are working on other languages, including other regional English accents and Chinese.
