It’s either

  Ken Burns, Faux Storyteller

  Ken Burns, “Storyteller”

Otherwise, you’re saying the opposite of what you’re intending to say.

Maybe just pay the $40 and forget about it until next year.

I’ve also watched him on and off. Do you have any citations for the comments here? I’d like to read more.

The Homebridge integration is also, obviously, broken.

This is the worst advice you could ever take. Always be true to yourself. Always be honest. Your potential client should be honored to have the founder and CEO of their new vendor and your undivided attention.

Works really well with families - each person can have the app installed and it’ll bring all photos onto the device. Yes you can share photos and albums. Yes you need to make a firewall config, otherwise you’d be hosting elsewhere in the cloud. There’s no way around that.

Get the Monument device, attach as much external usb storage as you want and watch it do pretty much the same thing Apple Photos does but locally on the device. iOS and android apps. More than one user — my fam uses it. Plus you can backup the files to any SFTP storage. And the usb drives can mirror each other too. Highly recommend. https://www.getmonument.com/

FWIW, we dropped Zoom and went all in on Vowel. They were attentive, video quality was as good as Google, but the transcription and cross company search (and CYA potential) was the killer feature for us. We looked at Gong, but holy crap expensive. Sad to see them go, this is not the whole story though.

This is a great idea and would love to see something like this succeed!

If I understand how all of these OpenAI dependent apps work, none of them actually have the LLM and are doing any kind of heavy processing. AFAIK, they’re all packaging your data, submitting it to OpenAI on every request and then repackaging the output. There’s no real indexing, no real tangible thing, you have to start from scratch every time. So it’s likely going to be very expensive and super slow.

Or am I wrong and I’ve missed something here?
