  1. indeed. it seems like a better idea to keep the source recording in any case

  2. i think this skill would only work, in music rhythm games

  3.  @cynthiaaaa5204  it doesn't seem easier if it requires a whole profession

  4.  @omnomnomi  if everyone in the court uses a mic to talk and only listen to the mic then no audio can get lost. but the problem would of course be the social element, where interacting this way is dehumanizing

  5.  @cynthiaaaa5204  fair enough, if we ignore the effort of specialization. a stenographer could also type out the recording, but i guess the best quality sound comes from being there. which of course comes with the stress of keeping up with the live event. so i agree with you. i do wonder if there is always a recording for them to go back to, in case they failed to keep up and had to drop some text

  6. speech-to-text does not have to rule out human involvement. maybe all that's needed is people monitoring the speech-to-text and fixing the few errors, just like we notice when the auto generated captions are wrong
