The man who made the concept of the singularity famous (Kurzweil) Ofc if you don't know by now I will reiterate, this is also my opinion and by proxy a guess :P its only a matter of time till we make one that can self improve in the required areas for the singularity. so too can you see that what's happening right now has an obvious conclusion.ĪI is getting quite close to human level on quite a few tasks. of course I don't know what the future may hold 100%, but you can tell if the seasons are changing by looking around at your environment. No I have not :P I also think it should be obvious that what I said was my opinion, seeing as I said it. Have you been to the future? You seem too certain that the singularity is right around the corner for someone who (like everyone else) cannot see the future, and I doubt that its right around the corner. so I cant really give anything to you.you should have some idea tho right? I've had several jobs in my life and I'm only 27.surely you should know what sounds difficult or not? I don't know your skill set nor do I know what you may regard as simple. I'd love to read what you guys have to say! Thanks! How much time do I have left in this field?Ĭan I and my fellow transcribers adapt/be augmented instead?Īre there aspects of my job that you consider safe from this automation and therefore require humans in the loop for at least the foreseeable future? While I can't deny this is an impressive technological feat, I also can't deny this makes me pretty nervous. According to the Whisper paper put out by OpenAI, the tech is almost as good as a human English transcriber, so I can't imagine that it'll take it longer than few years to reach perfection in the English language. But no advancement had ever made me consider swapping fields like Whisper. Hi everyone! I'm a professional transcriber/transcriptionist who's kept up with advancements in automatic speech recognition for many years now, and every year I grow more and more nervous that this tech will replace me in the not-too-distant future.
