I really liked the discussion week on PauseAI. I’d like to see another one on this topic, taking up the new developments in reasons and evidence.
When?
Probably there are other topics that didn’t have a week, so they should be prioritized. I think PauseAI is one of the most important topics. So, maybe in the next 3 − 9 months?
Quick note/warning about speechify:
I’ve been using it for about 6 months.
I’ve had several bugs using the app and customer support couldn’t help. I spent a total of about 2 hours trying to fix them, but nothing worked.
The main problem was that I could not use it outside my home. Every 2 minutes or so it would detect “poor internet connection” and shut down. This is extremely annoying when you’re trying to listen to a newspaper while walking.
Hopefully they will fix this. I still use it, but only occasionally.
FYI: The template is in your bin, so it will be permanently deleted soonish. I find it helpful, so maybe remove it from the bin :)
My template I used in the past: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1o2_Jffq_Qo_tkwVGlW43_bFTpMocJqIktsRm5YaYt9c/edit#heading=h.bjl1ckl27qyh
Cool that there are still meetups in Braunschweig. Keep up the good energy :)
Experience regarding discount
I tried the 50 % discount, but they increased the original prize to 200 $, so I had to pay 100 $. I massaged the support and finally after several weeks they refunded 30 $. So discount works but maybe you have to contact the support :)
Thanks for doing this Alex :)
Just for your info: This link isn’t working anymore: https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1742469645
I, personally, would appreciate having the option to download the cards directly on Anki.
Cool, that this is happening. I’m excited about EA Braunschweig :)
@peterhartree Feel free to ignore: Are there any updates in your workflow of listening to G Docs or PDFs? The post is now roughly 1 year ago.
- I have been using speechify for a year now. I think it’s decent, but the UI and the frequent crashes are a bit annoying for me. So I just wanted to see if there are better products out there :)
