Iirc someone on the selhosted com recently built this exact thing. An AI tool that asks family members questions about their lives and transcribes it into a digital scrapbook thing.
Literally made me sick.
“Use OpenAI to maintain an ongoing conversation with your elders so you don’t have to” would be more honest.
Honestly, if it was more of an assistant that just sat alongside you and just did the recording, that would be dope as fuck.
I’m still sad that I don’t have a lot of memories of my grandparents, partially just age, but somewhat because I was an ungrateful little shit. I sat and listened to them talk a lot when I was a kid, and what memories I still have are gold. A tool like that could have helped keep what I had rather than being left with what time and CTE haven’t taken.
Couldn’t one just use a laptop or phone to record a conversation with The Elders and then manually transcribe it later?
One could, but I know my ADHD ass would never get around to transcribing them. The videos would be nice either way, tho.
