Thank you for inviting me to join in.
My next step is to find out how to record my voice so that the recording can later be transcribed (by AI?) and I would then edit the transcript. This way it won't be my writing from scratch all the time, but also editing what I say out loud.
I also would like to record my own voice during phone convos. Not to record the other party, mind you, but my own monologues

which sometimes happen.
It is probably impossible to use the phone to talk AND record in another app. I wonder if getting a journalist-quality recording device would be worth the cost. One of my former students is a journalist who interviews people. I will write to her and ask his question.
