shipped news-anime-bot ep 7 — google's ai health coach
shipped another news-anime-bot short. this one was about Google turning Fitbit into Google Health and launching a Gemini-powered health coach that can use sleep, fitness, nutrition, documents, photos, and health context.
the useful part was not just the video. it was the workflow test. the new Spoolcast stage machine kept the episode on rails: source facts first, then script, then TTS, then clips, then stitch. when the pause review marker was missing, the workflow blocked. when clips were missing, it blocked. that is the point.
the output is not trying to be a real news segment. it is FAUX7 NEWS: satire on real events. the joke is simple enough: the future of wellness is personal, proactive, and still asks for $9.99 a month.
