alt Hacker NewsBecause we all contain multitudes, I can simultaneously accept that:
1. I hate everything about this because I vastly prefer text over video for the same content, especially AI generated video
2. There are a lot of people for whom video is their preferred medium and so this will be valuable to them.
It's a technically cool project and your cost-per-video is impressively low. Best of luck!

Indeed. In much the same vein, I simultaneously accept that:
1. I loathe video with the white-hot glow of a thousand angry suns, and loathe LLM slop-digests of things more still.
2. I spend tremendous amounts of time in situations where I can listen but not read, whether driving or on my bike, and this is a legitimately useful way to catch up on HN in those situations.
Thanks! Several people on our team are actually exactly like you: they don't really use videos themselves for learning, but see the utility for others, and enjoy the technical challenges around building a high-performant video format.
