Ben’s Prophecy Machine – WIP

v1.0 concept below. This illustrates my process, but will not be the form factor that I move forward with because printers are difficult and unreliable. I will be building a machine with a digital display instead.

I will be utilizing a HuskyLens AI Camera to detect when a person is standing in front of my prophecy machine and “print” a prophecy on to a digital display on the device. The device will make a direct request to ChatGPT with a set prompt that will return the “prophecy” to be displayed on screen. My goal for this project is to immerse myself in AI tools so that I can begin to understand how they can be best integrated into devices. There are multiple workstreams that this project entails:

    Description of Product Video:

    I plan on creating a standard step by step tutorial video with a twist. It will start out as a generic tutorial video outlining the steps of my construction until I get to a point where I’m testing the actual prophecies. At that point, the prophecy that I will read as a test will resonate with me and I will be visibly shaken by what it says, from there, the video will take on a dark and satirical tone as I try to cope with the prophecy I’ve just received.
