Copilot is telling me that this is doable in 30 minutes:
1. Grab a Creative Commons video URL
2. Run it through an off-the-shelf transcription API (Whisper)
3. Then feed that transcript into GPT-style summarization prompts
4. Wrap the result in simple markdown, and spit it out.
5. A minimal script or no-code workflow can be live in half an hour—though polishing the UI, API keys, and error handling will take longer.
* I will need to get the API and help with most of the process. Hope to finally put my first AI project together with the help of my friend, the forum and the course. Thanks for any input.
** I would like that for the user it would be only:
1. Enter the cc video url
2. Hit Convert
3. Copy result

Hi Jose, yeah, this idea is simple, you can even grab the YouTube video Transcript and use OpenAI or any LLM to create substack note.
I explained this and created it multiple times in different videos on my channel.
you can even create it with No Code.
check this video for example:

I created the snippet on my WordPress site. but the test API failed. It looks that my Old OpenAI API is not active and the OpenAI app is not allowing me to create a new one.

You mean OpenAI blocked you?
maybe you can use OpenRouter or different LLM Provider

No, they where requesting that I login with a phone# that is no longer mine. But yesterday I could finally access the platform and created a new API Secret. But the API Tester still cannot connect. In chat with openai, they told me I had to set the OpenAI endpoint to just https://api.openai.com/v1/. I did and still API Tester could not connect. Here’s exactly what they said: “the OpenAI endpoint should be https://api.openai.com/v1/ When connecting, your application also needs to send your API key in the request header.”
I saved the test on the Github in case you like to take a look. I think I named it as Substack Test, or API Test ( I don’t remember)
