Google Podcasts in-episode search is coming, shows now being fully transcribed [www.androidpolice.com]
This is interesting! For podcasts like @lingthusiasm which already produce our own high-quality transcripts, hoping there'll be a way of adding custom transcripts (like with yt captions)

Really don't want to make people read "link Suzie as in" or other autocaption errors we get https://t.co/6llKic8kzv
I find it hilarious that people are thinking this is for search. You know how many podcasts there are in here that will get transcribed? This is for ads yo. https://t.co/j9IylyeMaU

I think I have a take which will either be roundly ignored or get me nuked from orbit: stuff like this is why the European copyright directive exists https://t.co/l09MeCCZ9s

Google Podcasts のアプリ内でエピソードの検索が出来るようになるという噂。同時に "文字起こし" もしてくれると多くの英語学習者には大変役立つはず ?。音だけでは意味が分からない時、スクリプトがあるのとないのでは雲泥の差がある。https://t.co/TkdI3mPHTZ

문자보다 유튜브와 팟캐스트를 선호하는 신구술문화의 다음에는 구글에 의한 기록문화가 찾아오는 중. 글 쓰는 대신 마음껏 떠듭시다... 그런데 말일 경우 전후 맥락과 감정이 녹아 있어 괜찮았던 내용도 글이 되면 정신이 번뜩 들 정도로 이상하게 읽히는 일이 있어서 주의. https://t.co/33d7PKbliX
