The Worst in Show winners prove that just because you can add tech doesn’t mean you should.

      https://www.theverge.com/2025/1/9/24339817/vlc-player-automatic-ai-subtitling-translation

      The popular open-source VLC video player was demonstrated on the floor of CES 2025 with automatic AI subtitling and translation, generated locally and offline in real time. Parent organization VideoLAN shared a video on Tuesday in which president Jean-Baptiste Kempf shows off the new feature, which uses open-source AI models to generate subtitles for videos in several languages.

      Ok now that’s cool. Since it’s often all doom and gloom here, celebrating good tech is a nice change :)

        Since VLC is open source, can we expect this AI subtitle generator as a separate product that could be used in, say, jellyfin?

    The washing machine with integrated AI broke my brain. This must be the most useless thing I’ve ever encountered in my entire life.
