User creates local podcast from PDF using OpenNotebook tool

A user has successfully created a podcast from a PDF using the open-source tool OpenNotebook, running locally. While the setup required some effort, including integrating text-to-speech and speech-to-text engines and models compatible with Ollama or LM Studio, the user found the process enjoyable after a few hours. Challenges included incomplete automatic installations and outdated documentation, but the user is now exploring options to incorporate their own voice into the generated podcasts. AI
