Crafting My AI Brain - A Journey Through Media Magic

To AI Enthusiasts ,

Over the past few months, I've been on a bit of an adventure, piecing together what I'd like to call my very own AI brain. This isn't just any journey; it's one that's taken me through the ins and outs of API's, the cloud's coolest functions, the realms of Firebase, and the intricacies of TypeScript. For those of you considering a similar path, I'm laying down the breadcrumbs to help you navigate this forest.

Here's the kit you'll need for this expedition:

1. Cloudinary: Our first stop. This gem handles all things media. Think of it as your personal librarian, categorising and converting your videos and audios into something a bit more... digestible for our AI brain.

2. Firebase: Next up, our digital cornerstone. It's where all the magic happens, storing the pearls we get from Cloudinary in a neat collection called ‘media’ this is used to store settings and control triggers.

3. OpenAI and Supabase: The real MVPs. They take our converted media and turn it into embeddings (fancy word for brain cells, if you will) that our AI brain can actually understand and learn from.

Now, I hear you asking, "But how do I stitch all this together?" Well, that's where the fun begins:

- Start with Cloudinary. Get comfy with their API and ask our good mate ChatGPT to whip up a TypeScript function for you. This little script is your ticket to adding responses to the Firebase 'media' collection.

- With your Cloudinary setup, you’ll want to create a Cloud Function triggered by a webhook. This little trickster will catch any uploaded media and store all its glory in the 'media' collection.

- Keep your eyes peeled for the media document's creation and its transcription status. Once it hits 'complete', that’s your cue to introduce it to Supabase, which, in turn, will have OpenAI work its magic, translating your data into those nifty embeddings.

I leaned heavily on Visual Studio to weave these cloud functions into existence. It's like the conductor’s baton orchestrating this symphony of technologies.

So, there you have it. My recipe for an AI brain capable of transforming digital chaos into a neatly organised library of knowledge. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just dipping your toes into these waters, I hope this guide lights up your path.

If you're keen but feeling a tad overwhelmed, fret not. Take this post, pop it into ChatGPT, and let it guide you through. It's like having a personal tutor at your beck and call.

Wishing you all the best on your journey to building your AI brain. Here's to making sense of the digital deluge, one byte at a time!
