Show HN: An experiment in generating short form "deep thought" videos with AI
I've recently seen a fair amount of "philosophical" and story-telling content on social media. Common traits are a calm voice, soothing music, calm pictures and a discussion of some topic of self-improvement, or love, or the world and our place in it. The algorithms have noticed that I sometimes enjoy this content.
Some of this type of content has clearly AI-generated elements, for example using the same voice or images that are slightly off. So I wondered how hard it would be to create similar content in a 100% automated manner.
