Show HN: Duolingo-style exercises but with real-world content like the news (Score: 154+ in 5 hours)

Comments: https://readhacker.news/c/6rWXM
I've been working on a little side project that combines Duolingo-like listening comprehension exercises with real content .
Every video is transcribed to get much better transcripts than the closed captions. I filter on high quality transcripts, and afterwards a LLM selects only plausible segments for the exercises. This seems to work well for quality control and seems to be reliable enough for these short exercises.
Would love your thoughts!
