Zoom offers the ability to provide live automatic speech recognition
(ASR) transcripts in real time for meetings and webinars.
Once enabled, the feature provides the ability to show in-session transcriptions
of all spoken content which will appear in a side panel visible to all participants.
The transcriptions are machine-generated, with approximately 70-80% accuracy.
