"Summarize Tech" is a similar tool: Get a summary of any long YouTube video, like a lecture, live event or a government meeting. Powered by ChatGPT. https://www.summarize.tech/ Pros: It can summarize larger videos for free. Cons: no chat, English only, no full transcript viewer, no settings, no transcript download.

Did very poorly at a popular Java programming video series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFbBI85oTnY

This is awesome. It described my video better than I can do it myself.

[chpatrick]

How does that handle videos longer than the token limit?

[ashellunts]

Split to smaller chunks, summarize them. Then summarize summaries.

[prettyStandard]

You might want to overlap the first pass of chunks, something could get lost at the chunk boundaries. Not any sort of expert on this sort of thing, it just seems like an obvious pitfall for the context length.

I really like this idea. It’s basically applying similar principles as are used in image based nets - i.e. sliding window convolutional kernels - to text.

I built summarize.tech

Yes it's a great idea and I have a version that is basically a convolution over the transcript. It works much better than the current version - it can automatically create cohesive chapters and summaries of those chapters - however, it consumes an order of magnitude more ChatGPT API calls making it uneconomical (for now!)

I'm inspired that this is a side project, given everything you run. Kudos.

Can you please eli5 the difference of old and new?

[ralusek]

This is the standard practice already

[justinator]

Summary worked flawlessly on my own video.

[axpy906]

This is way better. Than the first one. It was able to process a YouTube live video with it.

[speedgoose]

It works very well. The premium subscription is very very expensive though.
