yt-transcriber
CLI app- Give it a YouTube URL and you get a transcription with possible speaker identification and optional summary or translation, all thanks to open-source AI tooling and my lack of enough free time to watch content-sparse YouTube videos

Show HN: Turn native language audio into flashcards and shadowing practice
Very nice work. I'm going for a different thing, but my audio2anki tool [1] is about as streamlined as I could make it to turn a YouTube URL I want to learn into a stack of Anki flashcards.

Minus the summarization, that is the same pipeline I use in [1] for generating listening practice Anki flashcards for foreign language students. It surprised me that nobody had really built out a program I could find around yt-dlp and Whisper for this kind of use case even a few years after it came out.

My AI Skeptic Friends Are All Nuts
Definitely not. I took this same basic idea of feeding videos into Whisper to get SRT subtitles and took it a step further to make automatic Anki flashcards for listening practice in foreign languages [1]. I literally feel like I'm living in the future every time I run across one of those cards from whatever silly Finnish video I found on YouTube pops up in my queue.
These models have made it possible to robustly practice all 4 quadrants of language learning for most common languages using nothing but a computer, not just passive reading. Whisper is directly responsible for 2 of those quadrants, listening and speaking. LLMs are responsible for writing [2]. We absolutely live in the future.

Spaced Repetition Systems Have Gotten Way Better
You can add my https://github.com/hiAndrewQuinn/audio2anki script to the space, in a similar position to subs2srs.
The big thing my script does differently is run Whisper locally to actually generate the subtitles from the video themselves. Most videos out in the real world don't come with convenient little SRT files bundled with them.
It doesn't yet shell out anywhere to automatically provide a translation, but that's more because I was already past that stage for most of its output reading-wise. It's explicitly tuned to make listening practice SRSable.

Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (February 2025)
I continue to spend most of my free energy learning Finnish. Only a few more years and I should be able to finally focus on my career again :')
Two new projects of note this month, one specific to Finnish language learners, and one that is probably useful for language learners in general:
* https://github.com/hiAndrewQuinn/tsk - A Finnish pocket dictionary with a TUI interface. This is the first nontrivial thing I've built in Go, by which I meant I had to implement and tweak a randomly pruning trie by hand to get the performance characteristics I wanted (it wasn't actually that bad). I chose Go mostly because of the fantastic cross-compilation story.
* https://github.com/hiAndrewQuinn/audio2anki - This Python program wraps around `yt-dlp` and `whisper` to create Anki decks for listening practice. This should work for any (monolingual) video in any language. There are many such projects on GitHub, I'm aware, but it was surprisingly hard to find any that actually wrapped around Whisper instead of needing an SRT, VTT, etc file to come from somewhere else. In that sense mine is a "one command" solution - just provide the YouTube link and go.
