Would love feedback on the usability of the autocomplete and whether the output quality is up to expectations! Also, does the splash page make sense? Thanks!

  You should take the https://twitter.com/DeepDrumpf https://twitter.com/DeepDrumpf feed, generate a video for tweet contents, and post it back as a reply or something :)

    That is brilliant!

    Sounds pretty realistic :) https://twitter.com/DeepDrumpf/status/796195299337338881 https://twitter.com/DeepDrumpf/status/796195299337338881 https://www.getdjtrump.com/videos/bc48090c/i_told_ohio_my https://www.getdjtrump.com/videos/bc48090c/i_told_ohio_my

      Had to change some words, but it's not bad! https://twitter.com/DeepDrumpf/status/823739367332126720 https://twitter.com/DeepDrumpf/status/823739367332126720 https://www.getdjtrump.com/videos/0745fc96/my_next_silence_order https://www.getdjtrump.com/videos/0745fc96/my_next_silence_o...

  Very clever. Would be interesting if you could map the text input to words that he's said contiguously in real life. My first test was typing in "I never said that.", and it would have been great if it actually pulled a clip of him saying the entire phrase. Granted, the corpus of things he's ever said on camera is fairly large.

    Interesting -- great idea! I'll have to think about the right way to implement that.

  Perfect execution, great, great job. I was really impressed with how fast it just worked, how quickly I was just presented with a video. Your back-end is really well optimized. The autocomplete is really good... I assume autocomplete is autocompleting in context of what words are available in your trump corpus.
  - philiphu 10y ago
    Thank you! Yes, the autocomplete is based on what words are available. The back-end is EC2 behind a load balancer with the media on S3

  In Firefox, the link doesn't display even after clicking 'list publicly'. Weirdly though, I can open the context menu and click 'search for ...', and sure enough the resulting search tab contains the full link.

The back button doesn't work after you create a video
- philiphu 10y ago
  Great feedback! Yeah it's not a new page load when the video gets created, so I added a "Compose new Message" button, but it makes sense that people will want the back button to work as well. I'll do something about it, thanks!

Where does one go about getting the source video for a project like this? Also, I'm curious why the LLC? Is there a revenue model or is it just for the liability protection?
- philiphu 10y ago
  I applied a language processing algorithm to a bunch of his speeches, but then we had to manually hunt down words we considered high importance (names, curse words, etc.) The LLC is for liability protection, though we did do a lot of research to make sure it wouldn't be a huge issue regardless

    Thank you for the reply. But where did you get the speeches in the first place? YouTube?
