Defuddle now returns Youtube transcripts!

Paste a YouTube link into defuddle·md to get a markdown transcript with timestamps, chapters, and pretty good diarization

...or if you just want to read it, try the new Reader mode in #Obsidian Web Clipper powered by Defuddle

@kepano Does it use AI?

@alcojor_comic Defuddle doesn't use AI, no. The code is open source so you can look at how it works here: https://github.com/kepano/defuddle

That said, the transcripts come from YouTube and I think they use AI to generate them?

At the end of the video I show how to use Web Clipper's Interpreter to generate a summary of the transcript, but that's optional.

Since it uses YouTube's own transcriptions, I guess it works for any language?
