Literally read YouTube videos

This is a submission for the Cloudflare AI Challenge.

What I Built

I built a simple app that can help you consume your favorite YouTube videos even faster, by reading them or even summary about them! It's better to be something that fulfills you with knowledge or motivation and a direct list of actions to improve you and your coding journey like this
But who am I to judge, I also like to procrastinate and watch some cats

Journey

I wanted to participate in the "dev challenge" for already a long time but never wasn't able to plan my schedule properly and just dare to try. I'm still struggling with schedules (I'm writing this a few hours before the deadline). When I read about workers and what they can do I got the immediate idea to create an app for transcribing YouTube videos, summarizing them, and creating comics so it can be even easier to memorize important topics. I used "whisper" for audio transcribing and "bart-large-cnn" for summarizing. As you can notice I didn't add the comics generation part, but it can be the next version if I get feedback from users that it's quite a necessary feature.

Multiple Models and/or Triple Task Types

This project utilizes multiple models for creating text summaries about videos
