Show HN: TL;DWOL – Summarize videos or audio on your machine using AI (github.com)

4 points by oscargullberg ↗ HN
"TL;DWOL - Too Long; Didn't Watch or Listen" is a Python-based HTTP API that summarizes multimedia content. Currently, it supports YouTube, Apple Podcasts and direct audio/video file URLs.

The API utilizes whisper.cpp for accurate audio-to-text transcription and llama.cpp for summarization.

Besides solving a real-world problem, this project also serves as my playground for learning Python and exploring modern tools.

Seem like a pretty efficient tool for summarizing various data. Will keep an eye on this

Nice, will test.

The problem is that I an too lazy to read the summary, so it would be nice if it could generate a youtube video for me, explaining it.

Haha. Good suggestion. Maybe a infographic video?
