That's doing speech recognition on the YouTube video's audio and then embedding the result as subtitles? Is the idea that this is superior to YouTube's own automatic subtitles? Though if the youtube video actually has manually crafted subtitles from the creator, as a lot of popular science content does, it seems a shame not to just use those subtitles directly and avoiding doing speech recognition. Or just rely on YouTube's automatic captions which are pretty decent in my experience.
See my comment on how to just download the subtitles YouTube provides with `yt-dlp` here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34040342 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34040342
