I took a much needed break. All notifications off. And a very long walk + exploring. Back today and ready to get back into things.
Talking about which, CreatorCaps is having a huge UI/UX overhaul as well as key feature improvements on captions editing for silent videos. And I couldn’t be more excited for what’s next.

I made clipping feel a lot less hidden in the next CreatorCaps update.
Clips Tray is coming to iPhone next week. Pull it in from the edge while you’re still in Clip Mode, preview what you’ve saved, then tap one to open the export sheet.
Also: The app is now fully localized in German 🇩🇪☺️

Most people scroll social media with the sound off.
Which means your video is competing for attention without one of its strongest tools: audio.
Captions aren't a nice-to-have anymore. They're part of the content.
That's one of the reasons I built CreatorCaps.

Most people scroll social media with the sound off.
So captions aren't optional anymore.
I'm building CreatorCaps, an iPhone and iPad app that helps you caption videos and pull multiple clips from a single recording, ready for sharing without jumping between tools.
Fully private, no uploading, no monthly subscriptions.

New low in closed captioning ableism/audism...
Those familiar with this season will know the captions should have said Joel Dommett and Kumail Nanjiani.
Oh, well, hard to tell those brown comedians apart, I guess. /sarcasm
(The captions are craptions from YouTube. Taskmaster is licensed in several countries. They have enough money to upload with human captioning.)

Your best quote is buried 37 minutes into that recording.
Clip Mode is how you get it out. Pick a start, tap for the end, hit export. Trimmed video. Captions already in it. Never leave the app.
Coming to CreatorCaps next week!

Anyone out there know what's up with #aegisub? It was abandoned for years, I was very happy to see development get picked up again last year sometime, but now the website just says "This deployment is temporarily paused". It's the tool I usually recommend for better subtitle editing, but it's hard to recommend something that's disappeared.

I’m actively building an iPad version of CreatorCaps.
Not sure I’ll ship it yet.
Would this fit your captioning workflow? -
I do not like this at all, but par for the course with Meta.

Totally agree - and I found a free tool that makes it easy to do the fancy captions - Aegisub.Here's a quick tutorial: https://idwerkz.com/blog/accessibility/editing-subtitles-with-aegisub/

At DjangoCon US 2025 in Chicago, more than one person shared the workflow of dictating their articles or slide notes to a template using mobile apps 🎙️
I was experimenting with https://huggingface.co/Mozilla/whisperfile, and it seems to work well on my PC 🔴
It occurred to me that it could be used to add live captioning to meetups or small conferences that can't afford live captioners as good as the one we had at DjangoCon 💡
Have any of you done any experiments?

Как рёбра графа 3D-сцены помогают LLM отвечать на вопросы?
Привет, Хабр! Меня зовут Татьяна Земскова, я аспирантка МФТИ и младший научный сотрудник команды Embodied Agents лаборатории Cognitive AI Systems AIRI. Областью моих научных интересов является компьютерное зрение для робототехники. Я изучаю, в частности, то, каким образом робот может использовать различные модальности (текст, 3D‑облака точек) для лучшего понимания 3D‑сцены. Сегодня мы поговорим о понимании 3D‑сцены в контексте задач, где требуется одновременно и трёхмерное компьютерное зрение, и обработка естественного языка, а также о том, как представление 3D‑сцены в виде графа с рёбрами помогает в их решении. Главной особенностью графового представления 3D‑сцены является его компактность, поэтому граф можно использовать для сжатого описания 3D‑сцены, подающегося на вход в LLM. Это позволяет получать качественные ответы на вопросы о 3D‑сцене до 5 раз быстрее по сравнению с методами, использующими последовательности изображений для LVLM. Это мы показали вместе с моим научным руководителем Дмитрием Юдиным в недавней работе 3DGraphLLM: Сombining Semantic Graphs and Large Language Models for 3D Scene Understanding , принятой на ведущую конференцию по компьютерному зрению ICCV 2025. Мы предоставляем открытый исходный код метода 3DGraphLLM с инструкциями по запуску, а также публикуем предварительно обученные веса модели на Hugging Face . Это позволяет каждому желающему легко воспроизвести результаты и опробовать все описанные методы на собственных данных. Здесь же хочется подробнее рассказать о новом методе и пути, по которому мы к нему пришли.

#Creators,
STOP #CENSORING THE #TRANSCRIPTS OR #CAPTIONING ON YOUR #VIDEOS.
If you don't #censor your #speech to your #audience, you should NOT censor your #captions or your #transcripts.
#Deaf #fans have every bit as much right to read your #swear #words -- and other colorful language -- as your #hearing fans have the right to #listen to them.
STOP CENSORING YOUR CAPTIONS AND TRANSCRIPTS! -

At a disability services conference today, and heard an interesting insight. One attendee was in a conversation with a hard of hearing student in a class that was using auto (#AI) #captions, and apologized to them for the occasional inaccuracies. The student said it wasn’t at all a worry, in large part because they’ve grown up with YouTube/Zoom automated captions, and are very used to “interpreting” for the AI systems errors. “I’ve been reading janky captions all my life; I know what they mean.” I hadn’t thought about it before, but it totally makes sense that today’s “digital natives” would understand AI #captioning almost like another English dialect.

It's hard to believe that just 14 days ago I was 13,000km away in California, wondering how Hans Hillen and my talk on AI and web accessibility would go down at a CSUN conference where there were at least 20 presentations on related topics (it all went very well, thanks for asking 🙂).
When we were preparing the talk, we realised we had way too much material, so we had to chop a lot out to fit the time available.
I kept what I cut out, though, and have now used that to expand my talk transcript into a TPGi blog post, using my slides to illustrate the article.
My focus was on how AI is changing the web accessibility tools we use now, namely automatic alt text generation, automatic captioning and AI-powered overlays. No lack of potential controversy, then!
Anyway, I hope it's an interesting read and maybe adds a little to your perspective and understanding of AI and web accessibility.

TIL. Differences between subtitles, captions, open, closed:
Summary:
* Subtitles: text corresponding to spoken lines
* Captions: text describing all audio (increasingly including non-audio as well)
* Open: Text burned into video (fixed language)
* Closed: Text overlaid onto video (enables multi-language text overlay)PS: Add "quote posting" now, you cowards. 😉

I've spent many years teaching accessibility and media, and the difference is not trivial in my over-educated opinion.
Captions include all sonic information, and are in the same language that is being spoken on screen.
Subtitles are a translation of the spoken dialog only, they do not include sound effects or music, etc. Subtitles present TRANSLATIONS in other languages than what is being spoken on screen.
Captions are a great example of Universal Design, while subtitles are a targeted accommodation for a specific audience.
For more information about this (and narrative descriptions) check out the Captioning Key from the Described and Captioned Media Program: https://dcmp.org/learn/captioningkey

Reminder that not everyone who needs #captions is #blind.
People on text-only web-browsers, data-saving connections, #translation software, #ScreenReaders, and people who are simply #VisionImpaired use these sites on a text-only basis, but are capable of looking at the #images / #art. For them, the #caption helps them decide if they want to.
For three months after my #COVID infection started in my eyes, I could see once the blindfold came off, but still it took a lot of work.

Something that'd be super cool is if streamers and YouTubers and people involved in closed captioning and transcription networked more closely with each other.
So, this project is called the Open Steno Project. It's a volunteer-run group that produces software, educational material, etc., in order to bring down the costs of stenography equipment, technology, and education. I love this project with all my heart.
https://www.openstenoproject.org/And this is the Discord server, for anyone wanting to talk to transcriptionists, closed captioners, stenography students, court reporters, and hobbyists about this field (I'm in it! It's super fun!). It's not specifically a place for *hiring* someone, but getting to know the industry and the people in it is a net good. And you might even learn stenography while you're at it, idk. 😎
