I wanted to transcribe a bit of a podcast, and I was curious if @claudeai101Claude AI could do transcriptions. Claude said no problem, so I sent the audio file, and I got the transcript. I know the host (@mcelhearnKirk McElhearn), so I showed him a bit of the output, saying "neat!" He said, "Umm, we didn’t say anything like that." WTF?

I then asked Claude if it’d simply made up the transcript…and yes,it had! Completely! Without telling me.

This is the future people are spending billions on?

Claude admitting they just made up an entire audio transcript.
