it’s become so easy to implement speech to text transcription bc of whisper and groq, there’s so much opportunity to simplify complex processes w/ this complex ideas that you can’t quickly type/write? send a voice message -> have it transcribed to text (extra credit gpt4o notes)

working late on making a poster board for a club fair @purduehackers.com is tabling at today 😅

\1 super excited about @purduehackers.com first hack night of 2025!!! we had almost 90 hackers show up last night and so many interesting highlights, from a demo of a rubik’s cube computer to vr laser tag played at bechtel, hackers were excited to show off what they’ve been up to!!!
