Automated AI Video & Social Media Publisher

This Hugging Face Space automates the process of creating AI avatar videos and publishing them to social media. It is a direct Python conversion of an n8n workflow.

How it Works

The workflow performs the following steps:

1. News Research (Hacker News): Fetches the top 10 AI/LLM-related stories from Hacker News and selects the most viral one.
2. Script Generation (OpenAI): Generates a 30-second monologue script for an AI avatar video based on the selected news story and comments.
3. Caption Generation (OpenAI): Creates both long and short captions for social media posts.
4. AI Video Creation (Heygen): Uses the generated script to create an AI avatar video.
5. Media Upload (Blotato): Uploads the generated video to Blotato's media library.
6. Social Media Publishing (Blotato): Publishes the video and captions to various social media platforms (currently YouTube is enabled in the Python code, others are disabled as per the n8n workflow).

Setup & Secrets

To run this Space, you must set the following environment variables as Space Secrets in the "Settings" tab of your Hugging Face Space:

• OPENAI_API_KEY: Your OpenAI API key.
• HEYGEN_API_KEY: Your Heygen API key (a paid Heygen plan is required for video generation, as the free plan is insufficient).
• BLOTATO_API_KEY: Your Blotato API key.
