Language Learning Personal Podcast Generator

Description

This pet project uses the new OpenAI TTS models to take a youtube video, and convert it into an audio resource in the language of your choosing. It does this by following a few steps:

1. Retrieves the transcript from Youtube.
2. Translates and reformats the transcript using the GPT3.5 model.
3. Generates the audio for the transcript using the tts-1-hd model.
4. Combines the individual audio files into one output mp3.

Setup

1. Create a virtual env and activate it: python3 -m venv env && source env/bin/activate
2. install dependencies: pip install -r requirements.txt
3. Create txt file named key.txt with your OpenAI api key.

Usage

To generate a "podast", run:

python personal-podcast.py <youtube_video_id> <ISO_language_code>
