Exclusive: Speech recognition AI learns industry jargon with aiOla’s novel approach


The company adapted OpenAI's Whisper model using its novel technique and improved its speech recognition accuracy by a significant margin.

Today, aiOla, an Israeli startup specializing in this field, took a major step towards solving this problem by announcing an approach that teaches these models to understand industry-specific jargon and vocabulary. As an initial case study, the startup adapted OpenAI’s famous Whisper model with its technique, reducing its word error rate and improving overall detection accuracy. Imagine safety alerts from workers with continuous noise of heavy machinery in the background, activation prompts from people in public spaces or commands with specific utterances and terminology such as those commonly used in medical or legal domains.
