butter

Whoa! I love it. For anyone wondering about the not-so-secret sauce: https://github.com/paprikka/butter/blob/main/src/watcher/det... The irony would be incredible if you happened to use Bard.

Ironically, Butter is both really really cool and exactly what generative AI is sustainably good for: reading large amounts of text (in this case video transcripts) for you, the user, and extracting structured or unstructured insights that lead to a more enriched experience. I, too, would pay for it! https://github.com/paprikka/butter/blob/main/src/watcher/det... But, to OP's point (and possibly meat-gpt's point?) - any app that asks you, the user, to provide it with a whole bunch of unstructured text in real time just to get going... is annoying at best, and disconnected from our primal brains' urges to point at cool things and see cool things change, and share those cool things with real meat-space people. AI is great when it can facilitate less typing, less reading, less irrelevant ad-watching, and more time spent seeing relevant thing

NordVPN actually inspired me to work on my current personal project: a "human" ad blocker for sponsored content on Youtube: https://github.com/paprikka/butter I'll push a more stable version later this week. Feel free to spam me via the email in my profile desc if you have any feedback or ideas.
