I had a look but the YouTube transcript is more accurate. Compare:

"Why combinator has the people who wrote a mail and email?"

from that and

"Y Combinator has the people who wrote Yahoo Mail and Gmail"

from the YouTube transcript for example.

Yeah, our language model needs some work. We're constantly improving our engine though. Since we are manual transcription service, we can feed back the hand-made changes by humans back into our model and re-train it. Thanks for checking it out!

No worries. You do punctuation better than youtube. I was wondering if you could do a hack which kind of combined the two results. Youtube must be doing something kind of sophisticated to get things like "Paul Buchheit" correct like doing a pre search of people connected with Paul Graham.

Yeah. We can actually do that. We do have a prototype of that in the works.
