Techmeme posted that AI startup Mirage ran a 24-hour live news show streamed on X on August 11. Journalist Alex Konrad of Upstarts Media described the production, which relied on realistic avatars to present segments. Those avatars had trouble sustaining conversations throughout the long format. The effort consumed a large quantity of tokens to generate the continuous output. Techmeme highlighted the story as coverage from Konrad and noted the technical demands of maintaining the stream. Visible posts center on the setup details and the scale of the token usage rather than audience numbers or any planned repeats.
