Testing NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 ASR: Blazing Fast but Misses Crucial Drug Names
MaziyarPanahi · x · 2026-08-07
MaziyarPanahi tested NVIDIA's Nemotron 3.5 ASR model on synthetic medical discharge instructions.
The results show that the model generates the first text in just 1.1 seconds with a final lag of only 40ms, offering an extremely fast streaming experience. However, while it accurately captured the dosage of "five milligrams twice daily," it missed crucial drug names like warfarin and apixaban. The author notes this as a typical clinical AI tradeoff and questions whether a healthcare-specific fine-tuning is needed.
