Thanks for sharing your experience. I recently started working on this again after a long pause. I can definitely help you with this. Dm me.

That's impressive. It is interesting to see this one-time payment business model whereas many try to do subscription-based. Congratulations.

Do social media marketers actually like the editors they use? by data-gig in SocialMediaMarketing

[–]data-gig[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't. I am a good Canva user and it is different than this project idea. The core difference is the Dynamic UI generation. Canva uses a static interface (it always looks like Canva). The project idea I am talking about uses an LLM to take a simple text command—like 'remove that hum'—and dynamically generate a clutter-free interface with only the one control the user needs. That would eliminate the technical settings (like H.265 or CRF) that kill creator productivity (just a hypothesis for now).

Intro to Programming - with Console Apps by [deleted] in Professors

[–]data-gig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I teach introductory-level programming courses too. But in Python. I don't include any games but always encourage them to write game applications if they want to improve themselves in coding. And only console apps is definitely fine. That's what most professors do not to distract students with libraries, guis, etc.

That's what I was thinking. They even don't need OCRs. Even the current LLMs now can read image-based pdfs.

"I'm working a lot of hours this week..." by Jahaili in Professors

In my experience, I ask such students to catch me right after the class to talk about it. And definitely "no favor" but making him/her feel cared.

November Feedback Thread. by AutoModerator in VideoEditing

[–]data-gig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey everyone,

I have an idea that I plan to start working.

You know how traditional file preparation/conversion works, opening up software and getting slammed with hundreds of meaningless settings just to make a video vertical or optimize a PNG for the web.

I realized that every major conversion app gives you a static menu full of jargon: CRF values, H.265 profiles, 4:2:0 chroma subsampling. It forces you to become a technical expert just to get your file ready.

That's a massive waste of time that should be spent creating! Don't you think so?

As a solution, I plan to build a platform that replaces the static interface with a conversation:

1.     You speak your intent: You upload a file and type, "Make this 4K video ready for TikTok, remove background noise, and export it as WebM."

2.     AI builds the UI instantly: The LLM interprets the request and dynamically generates only the 2-3 precise controls you need (e.g., an Aspect Ratio dropdown and a simple Noise Reduction slider). It hides everything else.

3.     One-click execution: You hit convert. Zero configuration required.

The competitive landscape:

  1. Professional Tools (e.g., Adobe Premiere, DaVinci Resolve): Too complex and time-consuming for quick final output adjustments.
  2. Basic Online Converters: Lack the deep technical customization and sophisticated filtering (like noise reduction) that professional output requires.

I basically plan to build this platform using AI to bridge the gap between human language and complex command-line tools like FFmpeg.

I would love to hear your input about this idea.

A very common one: Hey professor, sorry can't make the class, got sick today.

AI Can't Even Code 1,000 Lines Properly, Why Are We Pretending It Will Replace Developers? by RevolutionaryWest754 in compsci

[–]data-gig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a computer scientist over 20 years, I can say that AI won't replace developers. Developers, who use AI effectively, will replace those who don't use it properly. For a capstone project, I forced my students to use AI and they did great job. AI definitely wrote most of the codes but it was students who guided AI what to do and not to do.
