    Yeah I’ve used local whisper and LLMs to automatically summarize Youtube-videos and podcasts to text with good results.

      Cool, thanks for sharing!

      I see you prompt it to “Make sure to only use knowledge found in the following audio transcription”. Have you found that sufficient to eliminate hallucination and going off track?

        Yes I have been impressed with the quality of summaries keeping to the content. I have seen, rare, attribution errors though, where who said what got mixed up in unfortunate ways.
