I have been using the Chrome Extension, Sider: ChatGPT Sidebar, to transcribe newspaper articles and have very few issues with it. However, my first attempt with this post was a total failure. Basically, I was trying to get it to transcribe a page long article that was basdically a list of names. Hoping to find a work around, I tried a smaller portion and it was able to transcribe the list. Of course, I had to proofread for misread characters and artifacts. But, this proofreading was much faster than trying to transcribe the article myself.
