Can someone clever do this with David Lynch, please?

If you haven't seen it, you might enjoy this "AI generated, never-ending discussion between Werner Herzog and Slavoj Žižek": https://infiniteconversation.com/

I have indeed, but thank you kindly.

This is probably the first time I've encountered something where "It's so bad that it's good" makes sense to me. I could not stop laughing. The exterior shot with the Seinfeld-inspired music. The laugh track at inappropriate times. They talk about going to a sushi restaurant, and when they've finally agreed to go, they sit down and don't go anywhere. This is like the alien scientists who want to bring back humans aft…

The crappiness is unexplainably funny. Jerry speaking the cues in the comedy bits and saying "pause for applause", Elaine clipping through Jerry, George talking to the fridge. I lost it when it cut to an indoor shot with nobody in it for 2 minutes and then cut away.

It's weirdly compelling - partly because the chat participants are so enthusiastic, but mainly because once I started watching it I didn't want to risk missing the tiny chance that it might actually deliver a good joke! The animation style is pretty delightful.

When Bob Ross was new on Twitch, I had the same experience with the chat. An entire culture emerged in a weekend and it was so wholesome and fun. gg, RIP Devil.

My favourite twitch memory.

I saw the name "Seinfeld" a thousand times here and there on the web. But never looked it up. Now I took a peek for the first time. First video that pops up is this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYgFmP03biw So it is something like Al Bundy? A soap opera? If someone makes an Al Bundy version, it certainly should be called "AI Bundy".

Seinfeld was the first good sitcom.

The only good thing about sitcoms is that there are only like 5 good ones, so you won’t waste too much time watching them.

So, would anyone like to take a stab at the stack/process/setup enabling this? Because I seriously wouldn't even know where to start.

i dunno how they do the animations. Haven't watched enough to see if it repeats, or it is generated dynamically.

The script is probably written by just asking chatGPT (for a script). Might even have some prompts that seed the script.

Then the output of the chatGPT is fed into a TTS (text to speech) and played.

I think the laugh track is randomly played (or played in between different scripts that GPT generates). And i can't tell if the music is generated, or just repeats and is only for some scenes.

Quite genius actually.
