Now up to listening to podcasts at 2.5 speed. I wonder how fast I can get up to while still understanding everything.

@btp The real trick is having AI summarize it for you, then another AI summarize the summary, and then a third AI post about what "you" learned from the summary of the summary of the original podcast.

Think of all the time saved.

@btp I saw an article a while back from a blind programmer who posted an audio recording of his screen reader, and it was so fast it was pretty much indecipherable. It was going at like 400 WPM, which is crazy. There's an upper threshold, but you can still go pretty fast while still understanding everything.

@taylor So far, 2.5 seems to be that upper-end for me right now. 3x I start to have trouble following along unless I'm explicitly focusing on what I'm listening to.
