New: Improved Topic Detection and IAB Classification

AssemblyAI has released an update to its Topic Detection feature, which now accurately predicts the topics spoken in audio/video files. This improvement is particularly useful for customers handling podcasts or other media content where understanding the discussed topics can enhance advertising, recommendation, and search capabilities. The updated feature uses a more advanced deep learning neural network and the IAB Content Taxonomy to identify 698 different topics. It demonstrates improved accuracy in clustering these topics compared to its previous version. This technology is especially beneficial for customers building contextual targeting solutions for advertisers.
