I believe this to be the central part of the problem. The west cannot meets it's climate goals and retain progressive growth concurrently. Forcing the public to use bamboo tooth brushes and recycling their shopping bags are drops in the ocean compared to Big Corp Inc. of the world.
However, progressive growth is what the modern world is build on so when that changes, I believe we will see _real_ change. But yeah, good luck with that....
Hoping this can help me cut down the time I need to use on watching YT videos for uni. Outputting 20-30 mins into a .txt and feeding it to ChatGPT for summarizing. Thanks!
Coincidentally I threw something together this weekend that attempts to do just that. [0] It's really simple - just extracts subtitles and feeds it to ChatGPT to generate a markdown "article".
Well it's live, so you can throw a YouTube URL into it right now and get an auto generated article from GPT-3.5 in about 15 seconds. The items on the site right now are myself / others using it. Depends on the video length, but each generated article costs about $0.005 in API usage.
Edit: Ah just understood your question (coffee just kicked in). Yes, they're precomputed from when others used it. I save the generated articles in markdown format and sort by most recently generated.
If you want to try scribe I developed last week, it adds punctuations from the raw YouTube transcripts so you can read them more easily. It also adds chapters every 3 paragraphs to more easily skim the content. All runs in your browser using 2 models https://www.appblit.com/scribe
Not for uni but I was thinking similar. Find or create a playlist, have this tool transcribe it, feed all that into ChatGPT or similar, have to output a summary, either brief (i.e., highlights) or full depth & breadth of all the videos.
