Automatic voice recognition

At the end of this week, Google will introduce ASR (automatic speech recognition - trans. 'Automatic speech recognition' ) technology for YouTube. It will give the opportunity to create captions for videos automatically . This technology uses algorithms from Google Voice, which, unfortunately, are not perfect at this stage, but they will be improved over time.

In addition, auto-captioning starts, which will greatly simplify the manual writing of captions for videos on YouTube. All that is needed is to create a text file with all the words from the video and the ASR technology will determine when the words are spoken and generate captions.

It is worth noting that this functionality will only support English so far.
