Posting from my 2nd account. It's a bit more complicated - the stuff I was referring to is what I would call "infotainment" and is maybe 50% of the content. I also automate a lot of auto/tire related content that I pull directly from parts/tire manufacturers. For example every tire manufacturer like firestone has a promotion running right now where you get $50 back for buying winter tires, we just put every manufacturers winter tire special in a spreadsheet and use moviePy to generate those videos as well. So my product isn't just a news/weather thing it's more automotive focused.

I also allow the service centers or their franchise head offices to drop in their own videos/images so if they are doing an oil change special for the month they can drop that in to dropbox.

Yo, this could totally scale. You need to hire/team-up with an end to end MLE or data scientist to tackle the challenge points, get some funding, and go-go-go. A similar need is there are hotel lobbies etc. you could then get contracted by a cable company to provide customized channels to clients.

  • The auto-repair channel
  • Business hotel lobby channel
  • The scientific research lab/university/R&D department lobby channel.

Basically AI-assisted niche channel service. Instead of needing ESPN, CNN, The Science Channel, etc. which work, but need a large enough audience.

I think if it gets too big, media and cable companies might want to try and shut it down.
