Plaud - My new AI assistant

What was the name of the dog in Fraggle Rock? The other night, I went to a quiz, and I couldn't remember. I still won, but I left my phone in my bag with my new PLAUD.AI device attached. After the quiz, I asked it to summarise all questions and answers it had heard into one document so I could go back and revise it in future.

Helping you win quizzes is one feature; my goal is to use it to record my lectures so I can compare what happened on the day to the original lesson plan and aid my reflections. I also want to gather the questions my students asked, so I know where I need to add more detail and to help me become more prepared in future.

I do prefer it to the other transcription tools I've tried, it's for those of us that still prefer a physical tool to a digital one. It's easy to use with just one button, and it's the size of a credit card. It uses GPT-4o and Claude 3.5 to create accurate summaries as well as mind maps. I'm excited to find more ways to enhance my productivity with it; aside from asking the odd question to ChatGPT from time to time, this feels like the first tool that effectively integrates into my daily workflow as an AI assistant.

(P.S. The dog's name was Sprocket)
