https://transcript.fish I have been working on this podcast transcription project for a couple months and it's been super rewarding. I listen to a podcast called No Such Thing As A Fish[0], where some researchers talk about their favorite facts they learned that week. Then they riff on it and are generally smart and funny. I listened to the series so many times that I decided I wanted to listen to the show on shuffle…

Naive comment here but you could check out using a vector database for semantic searches. Check out chromadb.

Been working on this for 3-4 months. Summarizes YouTube videos and synthesizes podcasts that you can listen to. Also has transcripts so you can follow along. Click on the timestamp to jump ahead.

Summarization target percentage is set to about 50%. So if you want to listen to a Lex Friedman podcast, this can save you half the time.

Thanks for the suggestion. Vector databases have been on my list of things to check out so this is timely.

I’ve been recording voice notes to work through problems on walks for about a year and I love it. There are other transcription apps out there, but they are all focused on b2b, so I have been making one for individuals. https://www.glowvoicenotes.com/ It’s still pretty early days(first version should be available in about a week) but I would love to find anyone out there interested in using voice as part of their wor…

A Talking Avatar AI generator similar to d-id. Worked on it for 2 months but I have problems adding natural head movement to the speaker. About 100 users so far but 0 revenue. Very low traffic (like 10-20 users/day). Not sure where to go next, at moment trying to focus more on marketing and getting feedback

As someone who has been majorly affected by the Hollywood strikes, I finally dived in and spent the time needed to make mistakes to continually learn how to program.

That said, ive been working on a node.js PDF Text screenplay parser that will ultimately push out a JSON object according to an initiative to standardize all screenplay objects in screenJSON[0].

Here is the github for my project, it’s messy but I’m about 80% there and just need to spend more time on Regex to catch edge cases. Currently working on a next.js front end that maps out the script into a visual format but that’s not ready to be seen yet. Also don’t judge me on the name, it’s not going to stay as that. No AI as of yet, but could use text classifiers to be able to tell the difference between a key prop, and say, a camera movement but I’m trying to get as far as I can without LLM help of the classifications.

I've been working on a landing page builder for sometime now (mostly just weekends though).

It's written in vue 3 and laravel. The usp is that once you enter the page data you can try on hundreds of designs and style and customise the components without ever touching the data.

My plan is it make it open source but just haven't gotten around to it yet.

Here is one YouTube video I made explaining it

Would love to get some feedback too.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I just read through that page, thanks for linking it! My vision for Carve is that I just want users to say "I want to schedule a meeting with A, B, and C people". And then Carve would handle the rest: finding availability, making sure the meeting time is during working hours, etc... The additional features would let users set filters on: * What times they wanted to schedule meetings * Schedule meetings at least 24 ho…

There’s something along that line here but I don’t know if it’s the best execution of the idea https://support.google.com/chat/answer/7655908?hl=en

Schedule a meeting with cynthia@yourdomain.com

Find 45 minutes with Cynthia next week, title it "1:1”

These two flows are the ones I'm interested in building out. Something low friction where you don't have to spend time trying to find a common free slot on each other's calendar

Have you tried just going image-to-depth map? You could render the image in 3d with shallow depth then just shift the camera a bit

The main issue with moving mouths is the relative stillness, it's enough to introduce coherent motion in the user's field of vision.

If anything it might give you a unique distinction vs d-id, the head movements it doesn't aren't natural at all, but it's enough to not make it feel stiff
