So for the past year, I’ve been playing around with using my GoPro mini as a way to record my thoughts. I simply opened up my video file in QuickTime on my Mac, and exported it as an audio file. Using AssemblyAI, I transcribed my voice, then copy and pasted it into ChatGPT. In ChatGPT, I simply prompted that I would like my transcription to be created into a blog post, and I was surprised by the results.
Two birds, one stone
The accuracy of the description and blog post was spot on to what I discussed in the video. Perhaps using the GoPro mini as an audio recording device is good idea. It’s so simple to use and fits right in your pocket. No more typing and slaving away at the keyboard. Perhaps this is even a more efficient way to write than using the voice dictation on an iPad or iPhone as I can kill two birds with one stone.
A new workflow?
I understand that nothing will beat having the voice of an author be directly shared through writing, but voice and audio is very powerful. I just want share my workflow as I go and continuously experiment and find what is most efficient and works best for me. Hopefully this helps. I hope you give it a try and see how it works yourself.
