Hot Take is a fully automated AI newsroom. It discovers trending stories from Twitter and the web, writes a scripted broadcast with two contrasting anchors, generates voice audio, and renders a complete episode in a real-time 3D newsroom — all without human intervention. Producing a daily news show requires researchers, writers, editors, voice talent, camera operators, and producers. Hot Take replaces that pipeline with six autonomous Claude agents — a Director that curates stories, parallel Researchers that deep-dive each topic, a Writer that crafts dialogue, a Stage Director that choreographs camera and animation, an Editor that runs a 13-point quality review, and a Sponsor Agent that writes contextual ads.
