Today I had a happy customer tell me that the clip we made for her "looks amazing"! No idea how far away we are from product-market-fit ✨ but responses like this make me want to keep looking.

"... in the end, what’s really important for me is to have the highest possible opportunities and rights to access fundamental goods for everybody. This is all that matters," Read @PikettyLeMonde convo with Tyler Cowen from @cowenconvos in Issue 9 / podread.org

I wanted an image from Stable Diffusion, invoking that it's possible to be sad even when things are objectively good. I accidentally opened the door to hell. Prompt: "A person is sitting in front of delicious chocolate and candy. The person is crying. Matte painting. HQ, 4k"

ChatGPT from @OpenAI is giving sensible advice on how to promote your podcast. Now, if there only was an AI-powered service to help you put this into practice...
Honestly don't know if it's good or bad

I'm splitting my work and personal Twitter account. Please give @withfanfare a follow. You don't want to miss the juicy content I have planned: I will be talking about podcasting and building an audience wearing a burger costume.
Features we launched in October: youtube.com/watch?v=kwkYB0OL… • Clip templates • Background images • Hundreds of new fonts from Google fonts • Buy extra hours if your monthly quota runs out Unfortunately we didn't launch the time machine yet, so I can't preview November.

This IS a futuristic way to cook spaghetti. USING YOUR BARE HANDS. Future Diffusion is pretty cool, though.

I am now the proud owner of unnecessaryemojis.com. It's the "Unnecessary Censorship" joke applied to text. Initial tests are pretty amusing. I hope to do some fun, creative coding with this, with the only goal being to make something silly.

Exciting announcement for #SeldonCrisis fans. All three episodes of Search by the Foundation are now available as Active Transcripts! Please give them a try and let me know how you like them. Here's part one. withfanfare.com/public/seldo…

I think there's a place for straightforward content marketing posts without trying to sell you a product. Google and Hubspot have nicely made guides, but my eyes GLAZE OVER reading them; they make it look so complicated and dry. Does anyone know better resources?

OpenAI open-sourced a Speech-To-Text (S2T) model called Whisper: openai.com/blog/whisper/ It seems to have excellent quality and does incredibly well with accented English.

After Stable Diffusion, this is the second open-source model in a couple of weeks shaking up things and giving many of us tools that we only could dream of. For Fanfare and our clients, I hope this will at the very least lead to even lower prices.

It also does translation very well: Multilingual, interactive transcripts of podcast episodes, anyone? withfanfare.com/public/seldo…
