Show HN: I made a tool using AI to convert articles to audio

What about something that can do the opposite? Like converting video and/or audio to articles?

Most of the content I consume fits best (for me) in article format, so I can read it at my own speed, but some really good information can only (annoyingly) be found in videos or podcasts.

This is a good idea, I just started the project :) So this is a feature that can be added in the future.

Here is the roadmap for the future: - Audio sharing - Convert Text To Audio - Convert PDF To Audio - Convert Photo To Audio - Chrome extension - to convert while browsing - Mobile App - to manage audios everywhere, simply

and adding the possibility to do the opposite is also a great idea!

I've been using whisper from openAI to transcribe stuff this month, and its incredibly accurate. would be a good base for something like this
