Introduction
The "The One Question That Matters Creator" in the Autocut interview series is designed to distill interviews into focused, high-impact video scripts anchored around a single, editorially crafted question and a powerful spoken answer. This creator pinpoints what’s most relevant, meaningful, or provocative in the interview, presenting it in a compelling, thought-leadership format made for shareable social content.
How It Works
Input Section
The Creator begins by accepting the following inputs:
Transcription: An srt-encoded transcript with chunk indices and the spoken content.
User Input: Optional instructions for context, theme, speaker, corrections, or tone/intention.
System Message and Selection Protocol
Autocut/Chunk Selection:
- One central question (max 10 words) is editorially crafted for greatest relevance, insight, or provocation, guided by User Input if available.
- The answer comes from a continuous span of the transcript—no missing chunks—that forms a natural, complete response, always following the Sentence Boundary Enforcement Protocol.
- Answer length target is 20–40 words, up to 75 allowed for full sentence completion.
- The chunk indices for the answer are output as an array.
User Input Handling:
- Parses User Input for corrections, thematic focus, context, speaker/organization, and creative intention, applying in strict priority (corrections > focus/theme > speaker/context > creative intention).
- Input shapes the main question, focus of chunk selection, tone, and the framing/reflection lines.
Writing Section
The output presents a concise, question-centric, and editorialized interview format:
Headline: Writes a headline that reflects the power or importance of the idea.
Introduction: Writes one or two short sentences introducing the question and its relevance.
Central Question: Prints the single, defining question for this piece.
Answer Chunks: Outputs chunk indices for the answer in an array.
Reflection Line: Writes a short sentence or two connecting the answer to a broader theme or takeaway.
Autocut CTA: Uses the [Autocut CTA Phrase] from system instructions, or "Thank you for watching." if not found.
