In my freshman year of high school, I built a simple, multiplayer buzzer website for my school’s quizzing club. That site ended up growing tremendously, and has since been used by hundreds of thousands of people. It's been 4 years since then, and I recently finished my first year at university.
Now, I've decided to build something even bigger: an audience engagement platform to augment your events and gatherings through live trivia and quizzing.
I've been working on azigy.com for the last few months, and I'm excited to finally be launching it!
I'm a first-year college student who thought it'd be cool to leverage GPT-4 and OpenAI's TTS models to create an assistant that creates an educational "video" on the fly on any topic!
Currently, Sal is an early-stage prototype, but I think there's likely some utility in using LLMs and other AI tech to further the autodidactic side of education.
I've had this experience with RAG systems as well, but I've been wondering if structuring unstructured text (like a novel) in the form of a knowledge graph may solve this problem.
Perhaps coupling a vector embedding search with a knowledge graph created from unstructured text could lead to more informed answers from LLMs?
I recently started my undergrad, and after a few weeks at university, I got inspired to make a tool to help others out there.
Introducing lekchur, a free tool that transcribes your college lectures (or really any form of speech) in real-time, right from your browser. It loads the whisper-tiny-en model locally using the Transformers.js library and performs all audio processing and transcription solely on the client side.
The output on its own may seem rather cumbersome to parse through, but I've been finding it useful to feed the final transcripts to LLMs like ChatGPT and Claude.ai to get concise notes and summaries.
Claude has a nice file upload tool, so I've developed a neat workflow where I can record, transcribe, and get summarized notes of lectures on my phone!
For as long as I can remember, I've always been drawn to islands, especially the most remote ones on our planet. I've spent hours scanning Google maps for tiny specks of land and spent more hours researching them, often uncovering their rich histories in the process. These are some of the more obscure islands that I find interesting.
