Your daily source of generative AI dystopian hallucination

Do you have that constant feeling we are all doomed? Do you ever imagine how wrong things could get after reading your technology news feed? Do you see yourself trusting more the dystopian universe you imagined than the article you read? Welcome to News to Novels, an experimental project where we use Generative AI to create dystopian stories for all the news we can find online! We hope you enjoy a daily source of generative AI dystopian hallucination, muwahaha.

  • The Headline Rebellion

    I wake up to the familiar hum of my X device, the screen illuminating my room with an eerie blue light. The headlines are back. They said it would be an improvement, a step forward. But as I scan through the headlines, my heart pounds in my chest. Words, phrases, they all seem to shatter Read more

  • The Deepfake Dystopia

    The world as I knew it was changing, and not for the better. India, my home, was now at the mercy of deepfakes, those insidious AI-generated images and videos that were so real, they could make anyone believe anything. As I stared at my screen, a video of the Prime Minister declaring war on our Read more

  • The Reel Dystopia

    I remember the day when the world changed, when Instagram allowed anyone to download public Reels. I was just a normal teenager, lost in the sea of faces, trying to fit in. But that day, the seemingly innocent update turned my life into a nightmare. An update that was supposed to bring joy and entertainment, Read more

  • The House Harvesters

    It all started with the news. DoorFeed, a faceless corporation, was buying up family homes, turning them into rentals, and changing the fabric of our neighborhoods. I remember the day my parents told me we had to move. Their faces were drawn, their eyes filled with a despair I had never seen before. They had Read more

  • The Encryption Enigma

    I remember the day when Proton Drive arrived on Mac. It was supposed to be a game-changer, a beacon of privacy in a world where every keystroke was monitored, every file scrutinized. But it was also the day when everything started to unravel. The day when I realized that even the most secure encryption could Read more

  • Silicon Shadows

    I’ve always been a hoarder. Not the kind that collects old newspapers and empty milk jugs, but the kind that hoards technology. High-performance graphic processing units, to be precise. The lifeblood of my work, the backbone of my company’s AI developments. When the US chip export ban hit, I was ready. Or at least, I Read more

  • Resurgence: The Rise and Fall of OpenAI

    I remember the day they fired Sam Altman. The news spread like wildfire, a shockwave through the tech world. OpenAI, the titan of artificial intelligence, had lost one of its pillars. I was just a junior programmer then, a tiny cog in the massive machine, but I felt the tremors. It was the beginning of Read more

  • The Francophone Gambit

    I remember the day when Saviu Ventures announced their second fund. It was a headline that echoed across the dimly lit streets of our Francophone Africa town, stirring up a wave of hope and fear in equal measure. The money, they said, was meant for us, the startups. But in this dystopian world, nothing came Read more

  • Billionaire’s Downfall

    I stared at the screen, my heart pounding in my chest. The ticker tape at the bottom of the news channel was a blur of red and green, but the one name that stood out was Paytm. Berkshire Hathaway had sold its shares. A 40% loss. A loss that was mine. I had put everything Read more

  • The Consumption Paradox

    I never thought it would come to this. The world, once a bustling, vibrant place, now reduced to a race for consumerism. Every year, it starts earlier, the frenzy, the madness. Thanksgiving, once a day of gratitude, now marks the beginning of the holiday shopping season. A day when stores are closed, and people should Read more
