**Know Who Spoke When: Build Real-Time, Multi-Speaker AI with NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Diarization**

NVIDIA's Nemotron 3 Diarization marks when different speakers are active, including overlapping speech. It supports up to eight speaker channels and handles both recordings and incoming audio. The technical article explains that channels follow the order in which voices first appear, while a cache of earlier speaker information helps keep assignments consistent across chunks of audio. These are anonymous labels, not verified personal identities. Diarization says who spoke when but not the words, so an application aligns its timestamps with the output of a separate speech recognizer. The article's example assigns each word to the speaker active at the word's midpoint and treats simultaneous speakers as ambiguous. Speaker attribution and word recognition remain distinct components, and the article advises evaluating word and overlap handling on representative audio.
- alignment — The work of making AI systems actually pursue what their builders and users intend, rather than something subtly or dangerously different.
- open weights — A model whose trained parameters are published for anyone to download and run — unlike API-only models you can access but never possess.
- benchmark — A standard public test set for comparing AI models — the shared scoreboards behind every "model X beats model Y" claim.
- streaming — Sending a model's response token by token as it is generated, so the reader sees text immediately instead of waiting for the whole answer.
