Funny
I needed to transcribe a scene from some video we just shot for a client. It really isn’t that hard to do by hand, but then I thought “Aha! Premiere has this new speech to text stuff in it!”
Now, I am cynical, but what the heck … what have I got to lose?
Well, first of all it took 2 hours. For some reason it ignored the in/out points on the clip I pointed to in the timeline and instead just transcribed the whole scene. But second, it was comically bad.
Bear in mind this is a native English speaker who is articulate. Further, the sound is extremely high quality (that’s what we strive for, right?)
And yet … here is the first sentence:
My role here first American has achieved your prayers are that sex is to ally in the archdiocese from a business perspective.
Okay, I didn’t memorize the entire shoot, but I am pretty sure he never said that! 🙂

Without sex, the archdiocese WOULD go out of business……………………no new parishioners! 🙂

About the only thing I find the speech to text in CS4 useful for is comic relief.
