Using GPT 3.5 Turbo to summarise specific YouTube comments

Generative AI has become quite the buzzword lately, but there aren’t a lot of projects out there that focus on improving our mental state with regards to the constant barrage we receive from social media.

My first attempt at helping to work towards this goal is to create a service that allows people to parse their YouTube comments and get summarise of comments that are classified as being below a certain threshold. As the criterion for this, I have chosen Psychological Safety, and so any comments that are classified as being of low psychological safety will get summarised by the Generative AI and the exact comment will never be displayed to the user. By doing this, we eliminate or at least significantly reduce the psychological load that social media can put on us.

Here is the output when running this video through the analyzer:

High Psychological Safety:

- Great video as always but why is poor Jango posed like he needs to use the toilet

- I like it, thanks for showing the comparison. Definitely be getting the Batman. As always, your builds and opinions are greatly appreciated.

- You answered a question I was wondering about.

- Hi again! Im a really big fan of your videos! You inspired me to build my own lego city and to buy many lego sets!!!!??????

- I love this. I just wish lego would make some figures for other technic sets

- I literally just got these two sets, Batman figure and his bike, yesterday! Now I know for sure they will look good enough to be displayed together. Thank you for the video.

- Got both the Ducati, and Batcycle earlier in Summer. While both display great on their own, i too was curious how they would scale to the newest buildable figures. I was thinking the bike would be too small, but the scaling is much closer than initially thought. Balance looks to be a bit of an issue but cool to see the comparison shots. Definitely getting the Batman now, and maybe the Captain America as he looks like a good fit for the Ducati as both bikes are very similar in size.

- Thanks for this video. Really answered the question that has been on my mind for some time. Nice job

Medium Psychological Safety:

- Hi. Unrelated question. But when are we going to hear any news about the speed champions 2024?

- Actually, combining construction figures with Technic motorcycles is not a new idea, and can be a fun way to waste some time. Your own Darth Vader Chopper inspired me to put some Star Wars buildable figures on some of the older Technic motorbikes and the results look pretty cool. I’ve put a New Order StormTrooper on an orange Dirtbike and a Pretorian Guard (the ones with the weird helmets and red robes) on a Streetracer and on the Ducati. The Batcycle is still waiting to be built, and I was thinking it would become Darth Vader’s bike with some small modifications. Now what vehicle would I put General Grievous on?

- I wish Darth Vader had a motorbike of his own ??

- I think it would have been pretty cool if they released both these products in a single set, which could have lowered the total price perhaps

- Lol that split on two bikes frame xD

- I like it might only get those sets only for that

Low Psychological Safety (paraphrased):

- All of these lego figures are not as appealing as I’d like them to be. It would be great if they improved them in the future.

- Those buildable figures have ugly design and the proportions are off too. Improvement is needed.

- All of these lego figures are garbage. I wish they came up with a replacement for the old technic figures.

As you can see, all of the comments were reproduced as they were written aside from those that had been deemed as having low psychological safety, and were summarised to avoid unnecessary mental strain.
