A personal public EDU stream
Reading tons of text from AI agents wears my eyes out, so I've been thinking about other ways to interact with them.
The obvious one is voice.
The simplest version is just a voice assistant that answers questions, but that's not interesting. The default ChatGPT apps already do it.
Taking the idea further, I landed on wanting a kind of voice stream, like a radio, that I could listen to on walks or at the gym.
I think this stream should be educational first, which is what would let it be public. Nothing about my closed projects (those probably need a separate, private stream), but a lot about my open-source services and public ideas.
The stream should be unique to me. It should account for my preferences and interests. But it could also be interesting to other people, the ones who share those interests.
I'd want to shape the stream somehow, to give feedback about what I like and what I don't.
Technically this could be a Discord channel that I join, with an agent sitting in there too, telling me interesting things that matter to me right now, maybe playing YouTube videos or something like that.
I could give feedback by voice, or, say, post on Twitter/Threads with the agent's tag. And it would parse that.
Anyone can join and watch my stream (the value is in the choice of information based on my feedback), but only I can give feedback.
The recordings of the streams might be useful on their own, so maybe they're worth publishing somewhere.
You could also turn this into a product, so anyone could start a channel like this for themselves. For example, the open channel free, and the private one behind a subscription.
