Did his channel not archive the stream? No idea is its would have a 27 hour long transcript.

His Youtube channel? - https://www.youtube.com/@senbooker/videos

It only has snippets. And I assume even if the entire speech was available - there would be no human edited transcript. And all that would be grabable is Youtube's closed captions. And those are very ugly even for a ~5 minute vid.

I saw a comment that the speech will eventually be in the congressional record. At first that cheered me but then I realized it will surely be a fucking pdf and I hate those with a passion.

Yeah that's annoying. I can't remember if YouTube still has that live issue where it dies after 24 hours, then you have to restart it. I can't remember if that limits archiving it.

You could check C-SPAN. They would have a machine transcription I think.

This is exactly the sort of thing that AI is supposed to do. I know it was dumb - but I asked Copilot to give me a transcript. It said the speech likely had a copyright. So I told Copilot to fuck itself and give me a transcript. And then it told me to be polite and repeated the same shit it gave me before.
