We created summaries of all Lex Fridman episodes in audio & text form. We transcribed the episodes using OpenAI’s Whisper and then summarized the podcasts using AI. Finally, we created audio versions out of the summaries such that you can listen to them.

Perfect timing for this. I will give that 8h episode a chance now, couldn't find the time to listen to it.

>We look at podcasts as one of the largest knowledge-bases in the world, and are hence focused on the knowledge-seeker community, While our competitors treat podcasts as music which you listen to from start to finish, we look at them as a series of knowledge-rich moments.

I find this view of the podcast ecosystem very interesting. I believe this understanding is allowing Snipd to provide a new way of consuming podcasts,
