News to Novels

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.

    I woke up to the buzzing of my Apple Watch Series 9, the familiar sound echoing in my ears like a warning. The world outside my bedroom window was dark, the moon casting an eerie glow on the abandoned streets. I glanced at the time – 3:00 AM. It was too early for the sun Read more

  • In the Heart of the Machine

    I always thought the news was there to inform us, to keep us in the loop. But I never imagined it could be used against us, twisted and manipulated by machines.

  • The Silicon Spiral

    I wake to the sound of my phone buzzing, an incoming call from an unknown number. My heart pounds in my chest as I pick it up, my hands shaking. “Hello?” I whisper, my voice barely audible. The voice on the other end of the line is distorted, robotic, and it sends chills down my Read more

  • Code of Shadows

    My name is Eris. I live in a world where the shadows aren’t just darkness, they’re the ghosts of the past, the echoes of the fallen.
