My workflow uses krisp.ai for taking a transcript, and then I have a dedicated project in Claude. I feed it the transcript and ask for it to give me a summary in a specific format I define, with good front matter, etc., and it needs to spit that out in a way that I auto-import into Obsidian.
But key in my prompt is asking 1) for it to flag any low confidence or context-nonsensical statements in the transcript, with the timestamp, so then I can listen to the original audio and either clarify, correct, or say "I couldn't understand that either, here's my best guess and mark it low confidence", then 2) which I see as critical: Claude also is told to create a "context" document that it maintains based on my answers, so it starts to gather ASR things like "transcript commonly hears A B and C as variants of name X", who is who, internal product and project names and context info on them. 3) Claude is told specifically to read this prior to summarizing the transcript, and to consult it as it is doing so, and to ask me on anything it's not confident on.
What is then starting to get quite powerful for me is moving from full text search of my meeting notes in Obsidian (I'm a PM in a lot of meetings), but I can point Cowork to the Obsidian notes folder (because they're all Markdown) and start doing rich "querying" of it. "When did [stakeholder] first mention [feature] as a release blocker?" and it can point to the meeting.
My system works well, and I've done a bit to fine tune the automation and friction reduction, and it's a bit easier to manage because I'm not generally creating summaries for broader consumption but as my second brain (I have a separate prompt that utilizes some of that "knowledge" to build those).
One thing I've found helpful with this is moving the summarization itself into something with "context/memory". Krisp is capable of generating summaries but can't/doesn't review prior transcripts. Its role is just "give me the transcript as you heard it".
They do all this and meanwhile, in between startups and a few personal accounts, when I try to register a new Gmail account and do the text message verification (the old/current TOTP style) I get "This phone number has been used too many times."
Meanwhile the amount of spam from Gmail I'm getting goes up and up and up.
At a previous position I got frustrated at a manager who'd characterize multiple team members, including myself, I suspect, as "creating AI slop" when he was posting multiple times a week about how his Jira tickets, PRDs etc, were all being "supercharged" (ugh) with AI.
Meanwhile, I was absolutely using AI, but not to write documents but to do first pass critical reviews, the "what am I missing here, what haven't I accounted for here?" but the writing was all my own.
What value do you get out of Home Assistant you don't from HomeBridge? I use HomeBridge for a few devices, my Windmill AC, some Govee lights, and previously my Ikea smart lights (Tradfri, but now Dirigera supports HomeKit).

It’s funny. Even a team of interns could’ve mapped more synonyms, right?
& Apple Intelligence, when it uses ChatGPT, it wouldn’t be quite as horrible if Apple had paid for better tokens instead of quantizing into oblivion… I think.
Two savings for Apple resulting in subpar experiences.
Even within the last ten years, in California, we were visiting. Went to a store. "Oh, we only sell medical", "Oh, sorry to bother you". They hand us a business card. "Just go outside the store, call this number, and they'll get your info, give them your card number (I want to say it was like $20?) then you can come back inside and will show up in our database.
"Do you have anxiety or trouble sleeping and do you think marijuana would help you with this?" "Yes I do." "Sounds good to me."
Oof wow, that's bigger than I realized. I knew there were a lot of big ones (10k+), but I didn't realize there was US highschool football being played in stadium bigger than the smallest EPL stadiums.
I guess I shouldn't be surprised given a lot of college stadiums are 50k+ capacity.
> The problem is that most schools don't do that, would likely argue they don't have time to do that
Or actively don't want to do that. There have been cases in Ohio where football players have done things that should have them suspended or expelled (or more) and the school has literally gone on record that "we didn't remove him from the team as that would be unfair to the other players on his team, who are having a great season".
