I am blind. When gpt-4-vision-preview was released, I started to think what I could do wth it which isn't just straight image-to-text conversion. A narrator for my MPD playlist, with the ability to see albumart, was an exciting idea. Orignally, I didn't even know about the albumart and readpicture MPD commands. But once they were accidentally discovered, it was pretty clear how this little program should work. A bit of environmental information like sunrise and weather, and gosh, I suddenly had a private moderator for my own little local radio station.
