I've found experimenting with tone - from logical to playful to absurd — changes how I feel about the same facts. So I built Gooder News, a small toy that rewrites any breaking story as retold by different voices:
- Original headline: “AI startups are running out of GPU capacity.”
- Golden Retriever: “Lots of computers are trying their very best and just need more fetch sticks!”
- Spock: “An entirely predictable outcome when exponential demand meets finite silicon.”
- Caveman: “Many smart rock need bigger rock brain. Make more fast!”
- Dwight Schrute: “False. Real professionals don’t run out of GPUs. They run on fear and discipline.”
- Gordon Ramsay: “It’s RAW. The models are RAW because you’ve got no GPUs, you clueless muppet!
- Alien anthropologist: “It is difficult not to admire them: still burning their own world to build minds that will pity them.”
- John Oliver: “Of course they’re out of GPUs—every AI startup is basically a toddler at a birthday party hoarding cake and crying when it’s gone.”
...or 130+ other personas. Just swipe a headline to change the channel.
That’s the vibe - half satire, half thought experiment, half coping mechanism
If it makes you laugh once, it’s doing its job. Appreciate any feedback — good, bad, or existential!
