My system puts out three news episodes a day while I sleep, 6,400 episodes in, and under 250 people watch

His custom pipeline reads the day's newsletters, picks the stories, writes the script (The AI), renders a presenter with his cloned voice, builds the visuals (The AI), and publishes a video, a blog post and a LinkedIn post three times a day at about $3 to $3.50 an episode. Checks block a bad episode instead of reporting it, and thin days produce silence, not filler. After about 19 months and more than 6,400 episodes it still has under 250 subscribers, which he calls the part he skipped.

This only partly worked. Read what happened before you try it.

How it works

  1. Newsletters land in email
  2. System picks stories and rejects sponsored or filler items
  3. The AI writes the script
  4. Avatar video and visuals are built
  5. Checks must pass or nothing ships
  6. Publishes to YouTube, the blog and LinkedIn

Why it’s worth knowing

The machine works. It has made thousands of episodes on its own. The honest failure is that almost nobody watches them.
