It would be so cool in the future if AI could predict which parts are harder to understand and which parts are fluff and dynamically adjust the speed for you.

I’d love 50% speed for tough concepts but 300% for the banter and their dumb stories.

Maybe a product idea actually? Feel free to run with it.

And auto-rewind when your eyes glaze over.

50% speed is impossible to listen to. It will not help your comprehension.

Maybe just strategic pauses then.

I think there's large segments of many podcasts that'd be nice to just get through, where comprehension isn't inherently necessary. :)
