Began transcribing podcasts with AI in 2023. They're useful to facilitate reviewing the podcast discussion to note places to cut and edit, and to locate stories and memories for the archives in other ways such as material for Brief Memories of Shunryu Suzuki. They have to be gone over to make presentable for posting such as with this one for the Mark Foote podcast.
