The results could be cached, but it's probably unlikely that they would need to be used again later, as I imagine most videos are watched only once.
Another option would be to upload the generated subtitles to some service or p2p, but I believe that would also problem (e.g. privacy, who runs the service, firewalls for p2p, etc).

and to their own servers:

should could fetch subtitles as the same time ?
edit: cf, what "a3w" says too.
You can navigate to $foo.exampl.page and it will generate a website on the fly with text and graphics using AI. It will then save and cache the page.
It’s admittedly a useless but cool little demo.
So while I'm excited this feature is now available, having high quality subtitles cached in one place and generated by AI is the answer imo.
Previously, that was used for mp3 album covers or something?
I don't know how many times I've seen subtitles that appear to be based on a script or were half-assed, and don't match the dialogue as spoken at all.
But yes, that would be quite nice, if there are enough people who don't mind uploading the file names of the media they play (or some other unique media identifier?) along with the subtitles to that service—and with user credentials? It would certainly need to be opt-in, which makes one wonder if it would be much effective at all.
