This is something I'm very much behind. I think firefox is doing something similar if i am not mistaken. One of my favorite shows is a Japanese tv show called GameCenter CX. Fans create subtitles but its a lot of work. Lately they have been using ai to generate subtitles and while some are a bit messed up, you at least get the idea what is going on and they can work off of that if necessary.

Firefox has offline translation and image alt-text tagging (for screen readers), but people bitched about it when Mozilla introduced it.

I'm glad people seem broadly receptive of it now that VLC is doing something similar.
