Episode Details

Not liking this working till after 9 pm, making me think what next semester would be like.

COLD outside. STILL.

Language bots are working alright, need some refining. The goal is to build up something that can be sent each and every day, is topical, appropriately graded for a particular level, and to be cheap to implement. I might create a website that tracks all of them, or maybe just the better ones. If I tied this with the ElevenLabs voices, then this would be a cheap and easy way to create level-specific material and would work with most languages.

Got practically nothing done today. Tried to get some more automations done but nothing really worked.

Downloaded ChatGPT for Mac, will make Substacking a lot easier.

Made it to the third floor canteen! Same same food, just smaller portions and more expensive.
