I listen to that podcast fairly regularly now and generally enjoy it. But I was disappointed in both their original and now this response regarding ASR.
Those guys in the podcast seem to show a fairly superficial experience of ASR, implying some of the standard anti-ASR tropes.
Before even questioning Amir’s experience in audio, he couldn’t be bothered to even check on that, and simply presumed he worked at Microsoft having nothing to do with audio.
Finally, most of their conversations seem to just sort of hinted or imply that Amir does not have the experience to really know what he’s doing. But they did not seem to actually address this with any substantial criticism or examples. It was mostly all just implied - Brent has so much “more” experience.
If they think Amir is actually doing things wrong or doesn’t know what he’s doing or is making bad arguments, they should actually address those. The only one they bothered to address regarding measuring loudspeakers seems to have been a miss.
