Shameful Podcast ARG Solver

This tool was created for the Shameful Podcast competition. It performs the following tasks:

• Monitors the podcast RSS feed and downloads the latest episode automatically.
• Transcribes the episode using a local AI model running in PyTorch using CUDA cores to massively parallelize on the GPU.
• Identifies the secret word for each episode using fuzzy string searching.
• Determines the secret phrase by applying a coherence algorithm to find the most likely arrangement of the five words.

On the day of the competition, this tool solved the challenge just 9 seconds (!) after the episode was published.
