So question for those in AV, live events, etc. out there (hoping for input/thoughts <3)
How on earth do you break into the industry when you've only had a few contracts ever plus a degree in the field?
"Who I know" hasn't been able to help me so far and when I've signed up as an ad hoc contractor kind of thing, no jobs ever came to my phone until they took me off their list >.>
I do this stuff on a volunteer basis but like...it'd be nice to get more experience and actually know how to get started after 5 years of banging my head against the wall. Particularly interested in live or studio audio stuff, but trained in the video side of things, lighting and enough logistics experience for the bump in/out stuff too
So yeah, how does one get started in this industry? Should I independently get any extra tickets/qualifications/etc.? And any other tags I could consider adding on to find the right place to ask? :3

For anyone working with Whisper or other ASR tools, the white paper from our grant project "Increasing Accessibility of Audiovisual Content Using Whisper" is now available on the Lyrasis repository: https://doi.org/10.48609/na33-1y19
Resources gathered include stats for processing times, editing times, accuracy (word error rate), and power consumption; style guide examples for caption editors; and a project workflow for caption creation and editing.
I'm finally ready to release this AV project to the public. Which concludes 6 years of on/off work.
‘The hope is that, as Newman puts it, “you could have a DeepSeek moment” and the UK’s “extraordinary intellectual ability” in the #AV field will make up for it lacking the financial strength of China and the US. But while Jackson says the country can create an AV “super unicorn”, it needs a new road to get there.’

Underfunded #Cruise forced by cheap GM to switch from R&D to profit years before solving the hard problems. Maybe hardcoded “pull over” behavior without perceiving a pedestrian under the wheels. #AV #robotaxi https://apperceptive.substack.com/p/i-knew-this-was-coming

#Driverless Taxis Blocked Ambulance in Fatal Accident, San Francisco Fire Dept. Says
"Jeanine Nicholson, chief of the Fire Department, said that 'seconds matter' in such incidents and the problem was that responders were not able to access to the patient."

Makes me wonder if CPUC staff understand Failure Mode and Effects Analysis, if they understand what services the various AVs require to operate, and what the fail safe mode is if cell &/or internet service is overloaded or fails over a large area.
It's wonderful that "According to Cruise, the company’s vehicles are programmed to pull over to the side of the road, even without being commanded to, when there are cellular connection issues." I wonder: how many places in SF can one "pull over to the side of the road" to get out of the way? Has Cruise gamed this out in the wide range of urban conditions?

#AI #AV #Simulation Did you know that the challenges of autonomous vehicles are not just about hardware and AI, but also about creating simulated environments? In fact it is more Sim problem than AI or hardware problem.
