4 sourcesShow HN: Python CLI tool to convert YouTube video with context-aware screenshot
1 points · Open discussionI have been working on a Python CLI tool after Andrej Karpathy posted this tweet. And finally, it’s complete!
https://github.com/rajtilakjee/simone
This tool utilizes OpenCV, Tesseract OCR, and Google Gemma 7B model to convert your videos into a blog post. It also creates 3 screenshots from the videos which are most important to understand the blog post.
I have made this tool free and open-source for 2 reasons:
- I want everyone to be able to use it without having to worry about spending money
- In the hope that someone would notice this and hire me (well, I have my own selfish reasons)
So let me know what you think of this tool. Here are some important links:
Website: https://simone-github.carrd.co/
Documentation: https://rajtilakjee.github.io/simone/
Wish me luck!
