For some reason, YouTube is not using a very good STT system now. The lack of sentence punctuation is particularly annoying. Transcriptions by Whisper and Gemini 1.5 Pro are much better. From a couple of weeks ago:

I expect that YouTube will up their transcription game soon, too.

I've tried whisper too. I made this: https://codeberg.org/ltworf/srtgen

Basically it's kinda useful to put time tags, but I need to manually fix each and every sentence. Sometimes I need to fix the time tags as well.

I just spoke about youtube because it's more popular and easy to test.
