This is awesome! I always wanted to utilize AI for my day to day work Slack convos, but the friction of switching apps was more than me just proof reading, if I even did.


Thank you! Please give it a try, and share your feedback – this is even more important to me than revenue.


There have been a couple of instances, where I would try to debunk a conspiracy theory to a friend or family member and the next day, I would wake up to "Real/TikTok/Short" video with an AI narrating there exact argument. Most of the time, it's not even an LLM generated text turned to voice, rather an AI voice used to read a text the content creator has provided it. As long as it sounded like ChatGPT, Siri, "Her" combined with confirmation bias, people are treating these LLMs as their new oracles, as you may say.


Good job! Make it more mobile-friendly (only tested on iPhone). Like many others suggested, make the segments clickable for non-technical people to navigate, and add commands like cd, ls, etc., to make it more interesting for hackers. Gobez!


I took a stab at adding some mobile friendliness to my own implementation, if you wanted to take a look: https://con.rs


I like GPT wrapper's that let me personalize/customize existing real world things, and this a good example of that. I like it.


Thank you!


This is phenomenon! I am an iOS Engineer, not sure if you ever want to bring this to mobile but I would be happy to contribute.


> iOS have app privacy report where one can check what connections are made by app, how often, last one, etc.

How often is the average calculator app user checking there Privacy Report? My guess, not many!


All it takes is one person to find out and raise the alarm. The average user doesn't read the source code behind openssl or whatever either, that doesn't mean there's no gains in open sourcing it.


The average user is also not reading these raised “alarms”. And if an app has a bad name, another one will show up with a different name on the same day.


You're on a tech forum, you must have seen one of the many post about app, either on Android or iPhone, that acts like spyware.

They happens from time to time, last one was not more than two week ago where it's been shown that many app were able to read the list of all other app installed on a Android and that Google refused to fix that.

Do you really believe that an app used to make your device part of a bot network wouldn't be posted over here ?


"You're on a tech forum", that's exactly the point. The "average user" is not on a tech forum though, the average user opens the app store of their platform, types "calculator" and installs the first one that's free.


The real solution is to add a permission for network access, with the default set to deny.


I agree, I want a more intelligent voice assistant similar to Siri as a product, and all my apps to be add-ons the voice assistant could integrate with.


Very interesting read.


If my asylum application gets denied, what options do I have? I came to the U.S. as a minor and have little to no memory of my original country. I applied for asylum in 2016 and have been waiting for an interview ever since. Given my pending status, are there any other pathways to obtaining a Green Card or legal residency that would allow me to travel?

Edit Additional Question - Some of us like myself, came to the U.S. as children, following our parents after being forcibly removed from our home countries by authoritarian leaders who targeted us because of our "tribe". Despite this, the current climate often unfairly associates undocumented immigrants with criminal activity. How can someone in this situation avoid being wrongfully labeled as a “criminal immigrant,” especially in the event of an ICE raid?


I am neither OP nor a lawyer at all, but I do have experience watching authoritarian regimes destroy a country in real-time. One of the most terrifying things to me is the breakdown in the rule of law, because you no longer have any expectations to plan against, and anything can happen.

I would never counsel against getting legal advice, because competent legal advice is going to be one of your best assets for planning every possible future outcome. But I would caution you that in this environment, you also need to plan for what to do when the legal advice can no longer predict or inform outcomes.


Sometimes there are employment-based green card paths that can help for those seeking asylum but whether going down this path would allow you to travel would depend in part on your immigration history - what your status was when you came to the U.S., when you/your parents applied for asylum, etc. If you haven't already, you should speak with an immigration attorney to look at all options, including those based on employment.


That would be an employment visa, not green card. It can lead to a green card in some cases but it's complicated (depending on the country of origin it can take an extremely long time)


Historically, bona fide marriage with US citizen allowed the best way to legalize. I don't know if that changed recently.


It’s unreliable and recently ICE has deported people who are attempting to legalize their status. https://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/free-books/fiance-ma...

were you a son of an asylee that then aged out? If so, you may want to look at the asylum “nunc pro tunc” process


Very impressive having all these podcasts indexed, searches are fast and up to date. Out of curiosity, why the name listennotes? If I was doing a search for a simple podcast transcribing product, I might confuse the name for a different service.
