AssemblyAI details speaker diarization challenges: overlap, short turns, noise

AssemblyAI has detailed the specific challenges that make speaker diarization difficult, moving beyond general statements about complexity. The post identifies overlapped speech, short conversational turns, and background noise as key issues that break current systems. It explains that many diarization models assume only one person speaks at a time, leading to the loss of words during overlaps, and that short interjections are often misattributed to the primary speaker.
