Channel 784, infinite AI generated fake news

Hacker News

I was inspired by Nothing Forever to make something while it's off air - Channel 784. It's a parody of evening news. How it works: I have a Node server that generates headlines, then expands each one and creates an intro and outro based on them, and then passes the headlines to DALL-E to generate pictures for each story and the stories to Google Cloud to generate speech. Then I save that as a JSON and load it into Unreal Engine. I'm not sure it's as funny as Nothing Forever, it's a bit more structured. If anyone's got any suggestions I'd love to hear them.
