Ask HN: I have 3 years of family dinner audio recordings; what to do with it?
I’ve been stashing away audio recordings at dinner time with my family for 3 years and it’s fun to go back to like a journal fo hear what we talked about, what are some ideas for what you would do if you had this? Once you have made it text, TF/IDF for themes. Depending on your AWS familiarity, you can use some out of the box pre-trained algorithms for a pretty low price Here's a detailed example that can probably be done on your own machine: https://www.kaggle.com/code/maksimeren/covid-19-literature-c... For an API, I should definitely mention HuggingFace too! https://huggingface.co/docs/api-inference/index Check that you didn't commit many, many felonies? https://www.rcfp.org/wp-content/uploads/imported/RECORDING.p... True. This is at home with family. Maybe I’ll get them to sign a contract. Haha. Good point to look at this. I have a whole talk about exceptions to PA’s 2 party consent laws if you’re interested, and Appalachian :-) Put it in Whisper, get transcripts, then add search on top of it.
