Develop Transcript Pipeline for Taking Stock Episodes

[tehchives]

In our weekly meeting on 30-10-2024, @bobmahalo came up with the great idea to look into AI resources to create transcripts for accessibility and research purposes. After some conversation about what level of quality free access transcript might be, @JFWooten4 pointed out that with GitHub we could enable the community to review and improve the transcripts over time. Brilliant. This issue is to talk about resources for the starting transcript drafts and discuss organization for where those transcripts will live.

Stellar write up Chives, and another inspiring idea by Bob, who's working on some pretty cool stuff! I'm partial to video recordings of the meetings so that you can see who's Discord icon is lit up and speaking.¹ This ought make it easier to identify who's talking in the recording. 🔊

Alternatively to video, we could keep meetings as audio only. Perhaps this could minimize file sizes for ease of digital sharing without a central intermediary. Presumably, it might make recording the sessions a bit easier, too.

Do you think this would work @tehchives if we made a habit of introducing our voices when we first speak?

[tehchives]

Introducing ourselves is a good habit to get into either way! No downsides there, and I'll start doing it.

If we transition to YouTube as another easy host, video can be implemented. If we use IPFS for reliable hosting as soon as we can in order to facilitate the higher quality audio, that's going to be plenty for the majority of listeners and platforms I imagine.
