This is SO NEAT how you can transcribe the archives with this technology! I didn't know about this before and will look into it x

[@KaelynGraceApple]

It’s a godsend!

[@nattynoodlenutkin]

I totally get the urge to go look up the figs/maps/references/thing the text reminded me of while I'm reading. Deffo keep a notepad next to me to jot those thoughts down - or scribble in the margins on my ipad.

[@nattynoodlenutkin]

My advisor also gives that advice - get writing! I have that same 'but I don't know what I'm writing' response! lol!

[@FreddieSaltzman]

Dear Kaelyn, first of all: THANK YOU. Your videos never fail to motivate me and I always enjoy your smart thoughts and great edits. One small but: Sometimes the sound is off. The volume is inconsistent, some parts are louder and some are quite quiet. Also your voiceovers sometimes play louder on one speaker.

[@KaelynGraceApple]

I have tried so hard to fix this 😔 thanks for letting my know. I tried to fix this when editing but it just doesn’t seem to be working

[@alalyaalsabah2466]

I love your zest for life and passion for your work 😊

[@NatashaAlam95]

With everyone trying to shoehorn AI into every human activity possible, it's nice to be introduced to a beneficial application. Love it! 🙂

[@KaelynGraceApple]

It’s one of the best softwares I have seen specifically designed for history researchers. I love it!

[@tayhuzzahn]

Kaelyn, I am LOVING these videos as a current MLIS (Library and Information Science) student considering a PhD (and maybe an MFA?). This is the most shallow question, but what brand is that lovely green cardigan you were wearing at the beginning of the video!? I am searching for clothes in that exact color!!

[@seraphatar]

Hi. Lei ho. I didn't know you spoke a few words in Cantonese about Chinese dim sum (food). That's cool.

[@KaelynGraceApple]

我会说一点中文 (my grandmother is a Chinese immigrant and I have been trying to learn the language on and off since I was a kid) ♥️

[@seraphatar]

@@KaelynGraceApple That's great. My biological parents are Asian/Chinese and after my father passed away, my mother remarried a Caucasian who became my stepfather. Could you be kind enough to translate the Chinese sentence in your reply? I speak conversational Cantonese better than I read or write. Daw Jeh/Thanks 🙏

Thank you for the comment!

I get distracted by new spellings I find of whatever it is I’m searching for, like I found the missing puzzle piece. We live in such a unique time to have all of these sources available from all over the world and all of our history books anglicize so much. I remember when I found out ab Christopher Columbus’s name & ships && it made me feel like a tin foil hat wearing crazy person anytime I talked to a person less interested 😅 but back to spelling was no such thing until the last couple of centuries- in searching it opened up the 1500s & 1600s knowing that s looked like f and the software makes it f or a smudge can make a c an o I love the hunt tho 🥲
