With a bunch of free/open source AI tools (coqui tts, local LLMs), and a few python scripts written with the help of gpt4, I created a fully automated youtube channel that posts youtube shorts everyday. I got a whopping 52 subscribers after 6 months of wasting electricity In the end, I loved the process of creating the channel, but I hated the videos I made. Large Language Models (LLMs) has been amazing for me for being code monkeys that helped me write code. For other written purposes, not so much. Its writing are generic, bland and “soulless”, as they say. More than ever now, I’m allergic to generic written shit (which seems like what most of search results and articles are these days)
