I've heard AI handles smaller amounts of text better, so I will try again with one page at a time.

There's a point at which it's faster just to do it the old way, but cleaning up transcription is tedious and time-consuming, so it could still be faster to use AI one page at a time.

 And I definitely wouldn't use AI to clean up transcription without that "compare documents" step to see every single change it made.

 I will also tweak my prompt. 

I was worried about telling it to "delete obvious filler words like 'uh' and 'um.'" It seemed like it decided that more and more text was "obvious filler words." But on the other hand, it did it fine for a few pages.
