uh at the beginning of each one and that would help keep them from getting lost And um so Adam wrote a little script to generate those style uh beeps and so you get the digits from I came up here and just recorded the numbers one through ten They sound So really good Does it a sound great OK idea Yeah So um Yeah We just used those And do you splice them into the waveform Or Yeah He then he d I recorded Right recorded one through ten three times at three different speeds and then he picked He liked the fastest one so he just cut those out and spliced them in between uh two beeps It It will sounds be like funny radio uh voice Really Does Yeah it yeah It will be funny when really reading digits and then there are the chunks with Yeah your my digits in Oh right Oh Yeah right Now actually huh Uh maybe Are we we should handling you record A B C for those or something Yeah Huh Maybe And she said it wasn't gonna the transcriber said it wouldn't be a problem cuz they can actually make a template uh that has beep number beep So for them be very quick Yeah to to put those in there when transcribing So um we gonna send them one more sample meeting uh and Thilo has run his segmentation gonna generate the chunked file And then um give it to Brian and they can try that out And when we get that back see if that sort of fixes the problem we had with uh too many beeps in the last transcription OK Great do what Do you have any idea of the on on those steps you just said Uh Uh Our s our On our side or including Including Well I don't know The last one seemed like it took a couple of weeks OK Um maybe even three Uh just the side Our side is quick I mean I I don't know How long does your It should Well I meant finished overall or thing something u Yeah The reason asking is because uh Jane and I have just been talking and just been doing Uh e a you know further hiring of transcribers And so we don't sort of really know exactly what be doing how long be doing it and so forth because right now she has no choice but to operate in the mode that we already have working Right And uh so be be good to sort of get that resolved uh Yeah soon as we could and then Yeah I I hope we can get a better estimate from this one that we send them So Um I I don't know yet Yeah long Um I mean in particular I would I would really hope that when we do this DARPA meeting in July that we sort of have into production mode somehow You know that we we actually have a stream going and we know how how well it does and how Yeah and how it operates I think that would that would certainly be a a very good thing to know Right Right OK Uh Maybe before we do the meeting info organize thing maybe you could say relevant stuff about where we are in transcriptions OK So um we Uh the transcribers have continued to work past what calling set one which was the s the set that been uh OK talking about up to this point but uh gotten five meetings done in that set Right now in the process of being edited Um the um see I hired two transcribers today thinking of hiring another one which will because had a lot of attrition And that will bring our total to They die off after Yeah Yeah know various things So one of them had a baby Um you know one of them really Oh w that wasn't planning unforeseen side effect of Eh one of them um had never planned to work past January I mean th all these various things cuz we you know we presented it as possibly a month project back in January and and and and Um so it makes sense Uh through attrition we down to to two but really solid really lucky the two that we kept And um Well I don't mean I don't mean anything against the others What I mean is got a good cause a Well good they core No We this since a good won't core be transcribing this meeting Yeah but still I mean I d just a matter of we w got No uh backs two of the ones who who um ha had been putting in a lot of hours up to this point and continuing to put in a a lot of hours which is wonderful and excellent work And so then in addition um I hired two more today and planning to h hire a third one with this within this coming week but but the plan is just as uh Morgan was saying we discussed this and the plan right now is to keep the staff on the on the leaner side you know rather than hiring like eight to ten right now because if the IBM thing comes through really quickly then um we wouldn't wanna have to uh you know lay people off and stuff So And this way I mean I got really a lot of response for for my notice and I think I could hire additional people if I wish to Yeah An and the other thing is I mean in the unlikely event and since so far from this a little hard to plan this way in the unlikely event that we actually find that we have uh transcribers on staff who are twiddling their thumbs because you know you know all the stuff that that was sitting there has been transcribed and and faster the the pipeline is faster than uh than the generation um eh i in in the day e event that that day actually dawns uh I I bet we could find some other stuff for them to do So Oh I yes think that eh eh a as we were talking if we if we hire twelve then we could you know run into a problem later I mean we also just couldn't sustain that forever But but um for all sorts of reasons but if we hire f you know f we have five on staff five or six on staff at any given time then a small enough number so we can be flexible either way Good OK Good be great too if um we can we might need some help again getting the tighter boundaries or some hand to experiment with um you know to have a ground truth for this segmentation work which I guess you have some already that was really helpful and we could probably use more Mmm yeah That Oh
