Great video, love the clips you chose! Are you familiar with Nick Rekieta?

I thought this video was gonna just be a covering some legal aspect of the trial, but you surprised me. I didn't quite fully read the title...

I'm kind of interested how u find these studies; just curious as I've been learning about search strategies as it's relevant to my academics; and we've been told it is a bit of an art

Short hand is quite famous in India as it is mandatory for Personal Assistant of VIPs to note down each and every information.

I was doing English German Spanish translation in Ayahuasca retreats. It was common for me and my colleagues to translate for hours upon hours, often after a couple of sleepless nights. Interestingly enough it took very little effort once we would completely surrender to the flow. In this zen state it would simply flow through our brain and there was no struggle as there wasn't anyone doing anything. It just happened. Though of course no one was a professional and we where in a relaxed environment where mistakes had no consequences and if we lost the flow state we could just wait without pressure to find our way back into it. Though it's in no way comparable with professional translation. I just wanted to point out how much more effort it must be for professional translators to be precise and on point with their translation while under pressure. We would often do mistakes or very liberal translations so it was much less of a strain. I find it amazing how much more energy is consumed through attention to detail. I think about the 80/20 rule. 80% of the task requires 20% of the energy. This is a really steep curve upwards.

Hey@@sonkeschmidt2027, wondering do you know any Ayahuasca retreats you'd recommend?

My dog stepped on a bee

@@theofficialpollo :(

Wow. Cool insight. Thanks

Sweet

O-kayy?

So true. I don't think someone like me who has ADHD can do a job this demanding.

@@ravi.jangra Okay what?

Their median pay is like 50k and they are civil servant employees like all court employees. I don’t think they are paid enough for hr taxing nature of their job.

It's not about the trial at all. The title was bait.

Thank you.

That and the fact that they can't even unblock Netflix content from abroad. I've actually mentioned it to him months ago but he just left me on "read".

They let you get around blocks on torrent sites so thats worth it imo. Get a free one though

@@JoseRodrigues-wz4pi isn't that example they use on the ads too

I didn't even know what I was expecting, almost didn't click but I'm glad I did. I was always so interested in how stenographers could follow along in court cases. Particularly when things get heated and several people are talking at once

I didn’t want to click on this video either, but I was pleasantly surprised. I should have known to never expect anything less from this channel.

Absolutely on the same boat with you!

Thanks for spending one-and-a-half seconds to share that with us!

I mean they can just use a microphone

Agreed, the story telling definately helps me absorb useful information

I remember hearing starting at 60k and 6 figures is common but these things always wildly vary based on location but seems like a decently well paying profession.

I guess the supply isn't that high so probably pretty well

I can see AI have a real impact on the industry! AI currently is more efficient and effective in gathering information and documenting that information!

Also, how does one translate Amber to English?

@@Pentti_Hilkuri get a dog to step on a bee and have it translate Amber to English

Seconded

Watch Haircafe's response to that video, you're welcome

Agreed.

blues lmao some soyboy youtube deboonker? Lmao

It was helpful? You mean you aren't bald anymore?

Also I get paid $3.45 the hour I’m from a Latin American country :( which I don’t think is a fair payment

@@lgxxgmz218 you deserve so much more than $3.45/hr! Maybe you can look for interpreter jobs in other countries or remote interpreter jobs?

I never understood comparing how much people are being paid in other countries using dollars. It's all based on exchange rate. Isn't what's actually important whether the wage is enough to live decently in that home country? What's the point of changing it to USD at all?

@@jewelsbarbie thank you for saying that! And I hope I can get a remote job like that soon

Going through hours of a recording takes ages.

@@funnyman4744 what about post trial transcribing? would be less demanding that way i guess

@@vulnerablerummy Post trial could be too late. What is if there is a question to a topic of ~10 minutes ago ? You know it was said but you don't know the exact time or what was said. But you need to know it as soon as possible ... You can't end the court session, give the writer a week or so to write everything down and then continue the court session ... You also don't have the time to search in a recorder for the moment to replay that was said.

@@blablup1214 so then just rewind the recording.

I was wondering the same thing. It seems like a remnant from 'times past,' almost. I mean...these days...if it's about finding Information quickly, a rough transcription by A.I. and then a word search should work just fine. And then you could listen to the exact wording. Of course.this wasn't possible, until fairly recently. So maybe they just haven't changed the system, yet.

That's a great idea!

It does indeed feel antiquated. I think in the end what it comes down to is that for some tasks hardware/software just cannot compete with a human brain. Comprehending and translating speech into written word, in the steno's mind, is the bottleneck and every other part of the system (keyboard, software, microphones, etc) is already optimised pretty much as well as it needs to be.

@@mattmorgan2525 i think AI cant process accents/timbre of speaking nearly as well as people can, look at auto dubbed videos, some are accurate most arent.

@@user-vv1do1wg1j I just feel like there are so many alternatives. It's now cheap and easy to produce audio/video recordings that would be better able to capture tone, pauses, body language, etc. And even if you additionally wanted a written copy, the fact that digital audio recording is so easy means that the transcription doesn't have to be paced at real time. Here's a possible alternative: (1) Make an audio recording of the trial. (2) Use advanced speech-to-text software, which can currently convert at least reasonably well to produce a working draft copy. (3) Hire people that wouldn't be as expensive to train as present stenographers to listen to the recording at double speed while reading along with the working draft created from speech-to-text. Whenever this person spots an AI error, they manually correct the draft accordingly. This could be both a faster and cheaper solution than how things are done presently. (4: Optional) Include with the written transcript also the audio or video source material, since storage is cheap.

Legally blind or completely blind? I'm amazed by your fluid writing here

Mentats. You are thinking of Mentats ;)

@@Darkestestmatter Mentats and navigators are different people. Mentats are aides to important people who have minds like computers, navigators fly ships through space and take spice because seeing the future is the only way to navigate above lightspeed.

@@EresirThe1st So, which ones are the most similar in function and use of their mind skills to the translators and stenographers? Mentats perhaps?

@@Darkestestmatter Maybe, but I can see the quick speeds of a stenographer seeming like a navigator's reactions

How is that contentious?

We court reporters have been singing her praises since day 1!

Any skill that is hard for you, that was the point.

Any musical instrument. Any foreign language. Any sport. Any strategy game. Things that can really get your brain going. There's probably more that I missed.

A. Stenography was invented before video became practical. B. Stenographers are frequently called to read back trial proceedings. C. I suspect it’s easier and more practical to have the stenographer read out a portion of the trial than to find it via video. D. The stenographer is an officer of the court.
