CLI & library that extracts YouTube captions and returns an OpenAI-generated summary

youtube-ai-resume

Generate concise AI summaries of YouTube videos from the command line. It works in two steps:

1. Downloads the video caption (subtitles) with pytubefix.
2. Sends the caption to the OpenAI API and returns a summary in the language you choose.

Summary:

The speaker, Dashish, an engineer on OpenAI’s product team, discusses advancements in AI agents that integrate improved models with powerful tools to 
enhance user experience. Key points include:

- **Symbiotic Improvement**: Better tools enable more capable AI agents, which in turn can utilize more powerful tools, creating a continuous cycle of 
enhancement.
- **Agent Capabilities**: The AI agent can access various personal tools and data sources, such as Gmail and Google Calendar, through connectors to perform
complex tasks.
- **Use Case - Booking a Tennis Tournament Itinerary**:
  - The agent is tasked with planning a detailed itinerary for a tennis tournament in Palm Springs, focusing on semi-final dates.
  - It checks the tournament schedule, the user’s calendar availability, flight options, hotel bookings, match attendance, and dining plans.
  - The agent uses a visual browser and personal data access to gather and coordinate all necessary information.
- **User Experience**: The agent automates the research and planning process, handling logistical details like travel time and meeting schedules, then 
notifies the user with a comprehensive plan to review.
- **Benefit**: This automation frees users from mundane tasks, allowing them to focus on the core activities they care about.

Overall, the presentation highlights how integrating AI models with personal data and external tools can create intelligent agents that manage complex, 
personalized planning tasks efficiently.

Library usage

from youtube_ai_resume import caption, summarizer

txt = caption.fetch_caption("dQw4w9WgXcQ")
summary = summarizer.summarize(
    transcript=txt,
    api_key="sk-…",
    model="gpt-4.1-mini",
    out_lang="pt_BR"
)
print(summary)

Configuration

Voice narration (Text-to-Speech) [Optional]

You can optionally have the summary narrated aloud using Google Cloud Text-to-Speech (TTS).

Optional Requirements (only if you want voice narration)

• A Google Cloud account with the Text-to-Speech API enabled
• A service account key (JSON) with permission to use TTS
• The dependencies google-cloud-texttospeech and playsound (already included in requirements.txt)

Optional Setup

1. Create a project in Google Cloud and enable the Text-to-Speech API.
2. Generate and download a service account credentials file (JSON).
3. Set the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable to the path of your credentials file:

export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="/path/to/your/service-account.json"

Or authenticate using the Google Cloud CLI (gcloud):

gcloud auth application-default login

Usage

• To hear the summary narration, add the --voice option to the command:

youtube-ai-resume dQw4w9WgXcQ --voice

• To enable narration by default, add to your config.json:

{
    "voice_enabled": true
}

You can customize voice, language, and speed in config.json (see code examples).

---

You can set the OpenAI API key as an environment variable or in a config file.

Environment variable:

OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-..."

Config file at ~/.config/youtube-ai-resume/config.json (auto-created on first run) lets you change the default model.

{
    "model": "gpt-4.1-mini",
    "out_lang": "en"
}
