Still very much in-flight, but progressing pretty quickly. Just tonight I decided I wanted to try using OCR to extract the text of the lyrics out of the frames of the video so that I can match up the clips with the lines eventually, and so far I've been through a series of iterations of different techniques with increasing accuracy. All of this has just been driven by asking ChatGPT and working through its suggestions, asking probing questions, and even using it to debug. It's just mind blowing. This is a project I wanted to years and years ago and just didn't know where to start, or the effort simply would have been more than I was willing to put in, but I actually think I'm going to succeed at it and I don't think it'll take me too long. It's making programming fun again.
