If smartphone companies and social media companies are stating that their products are causing a mental health crisis, there's probably some merit to that.


Wowww this is amazing. I've made a few remakes of slime basketball and am planning to do another one, especially with AI coding now being a thing. This is really nice, well done!


I think this was the whole point of the blog post. As someone else mentioned, this didn't have much to do with AI so referencing AI seems purely like an attempt to capture some eyes for publicity.

I'd actually say that _not_ using AI to prepare for an interview is mistake, putting you at a major disadvantage (and there are plenty of honest ways to use it).


As an interviewer, I'm not testing for things AI is likely to help you with. I want to know how you are going to do the job, and experience first-hand how you collaborate in our shared profession.

You can practice with AI if you want, but it is definitely not necessary. I would much rather have someone say "I don't know that one" (and have hired many people who did), rather than have someone provide some content ChatGPT gave them the day before.


> "We detect no activity by nation-state actors in our networks at this time," an AT&T spokesperson said.

Sounds like the root of the issue.


I quit my job and depleted savings earlier this year to work on helping others overcome addictive habits and behaviors https://neurtureapp.com

Addiction is rampant right now, from social media and phones to vaping and beyond. People need access to science/research-based resources, not just a “sober” counter, which doesn’t apply to many people and is rarely helpful to those it applies to.

Working with a behavioral scientist and a clinical psychologist on the UX and content of the app at the moment but any thoughts, feedback, connections, or help would be amazing.

I just upgrade to iOS 18 to try this and couldn't find it. How do you actually do it?


I think it generates the transcript automatically for new recordings but you can also edit a old one and then generate the transcript from there


I love Descript. Their "convert to studio quality" feature is better than Adobe's and ElevenLabs, in my experience.

I wondered if this particular feature was really worth paying for so I was happy that I found Audapolis.


What does that feature do?


What I particularly like about the Descript version (though it is overdone as mentioned) is that it reduces or eliminates the pesky S sounds and P sounds (called sibilances and plosives) that you get when you talk into a microphone and you're not perfectly distanced from it.

I haven't found another app that reduces or removes these.


Its machine learning powered noise reduction + compressor + eq + normalize combo effect. Works ok. Results in quite a bit overdone “studio” sound. I think trend in mixing is leaning much more natural (less tweaked) nowdays. But for no work it might be impressive. Probably works in internal corpo presentations well.


I would imagine that requests for this feature went way up as ChatGPT has popularized.
