Mobile Device: Mentor-Side AI

April 2, 2024

Mentor AI Beta (Enhancements)

February 27, 2024

Version 24.02.2

Features 

  • If OpenAI is unable to process the transcript, the AWS transcript is used to generate the AI Features (key points, summary, and call to action)
  • Transcript processing is sped up by detecting if a file is too large to be processed by OpenAI and instead falling back to the AWS transcript
  • Updated the model for better instruction following and more consistent outputs

Bug Fixes

  • Improvements to detecting no speech, which fixes instances where the transcript is made up due to no speech in the audio file
  • Fixes for high memory usage
