Transforming Speech Recognition with Miguel Jetté of Rev.com
Miguel Jetté, VP of AI at Rev.com, shares insights into the evolution and impact of AI in transcription and speech recognition. Rev started as a platform offering transcription, captions, and subtitles, heavily relying on AI to improve its tools and products. Miguel's journey began eight years ago, focusing on building speech recognition capabilities.
This technology provides a first draft for "Revvers" (transcribers) to polish, enhancing efficiency and accuracy. He highlights the importance of a large and quality dataset, derived from Rev's transcription work, as a key advantage in training their speech recognition model. Challenges in testing and improving these models include dealing with subjective interpretations of transcripts. Miguel also discusses future directions, including tackling more complex use cases, multilingual support, and expanding technology to other languages and fields like translation and generative audio.
His career path, from a mathematics background to leading AI advancements at Rev, underscores the interdisciplinary nature and rapid evolution of speech technology and AI applications.
Notable Quotes from Miguel Jetté:
🎙️ Rev started as a platform for work at home jobs, diving deep into transcription, captions, and subtitles, powered by AI innovations.
🌍 Expanding our technology to embrace multilingual support and translation is not just exciting; it's a path towards global accessibility.
