    Im curious What makes what VLC is doing qualify as artificial intelligence instead of just an automated transcription plugin?

    Automated transcription software has been around for decades, I totally understand getting in on the ai hype train but i guess I’m confused as to if software from years past like “dragon naturally speaking” or Shazam are also LLMs that predate openAI or is how those services worked to identify things different from how modern llms work?

      Llms are a very specific Gennerative AI subset. Not everything AI is LLM, especially stuff like Shazam is pretty traditional AI. It’s been around for a while already, and studied for even longer (even back in the 1960s we were already starting to have a field of study in this domain)
