“Nothing, Forever” randomly generates Seinfeld-like situations infinitely.

Artificial intelligence-created content has become a prominent, if controversial element of content creation over the past year, with AI algorithms successfully creating art, comics, animation, and more. As the AI interest blooms outward, the creatively-minded have begun putting the technology toward more amusing purposes, such as duplicating classic TV sitcoms.

A small media company called Mismatch Media launched a Twitch channel back in December titled @watchmeforever, with an appearance like an old TV guide. This channel plays a single show infinitely: Nothing, Forever. Nothing, Forever utilizes legally-distinct models of the characters from classic sitcom Seinfeld alongside AI-generated movement and dialogue to create constantly-shifting sitcom situations. There is no direct input from Mismatch Media, the entire process runs completely autonomously.

“Nothing, Forever is a show about nothing, that happens forever,” the description of the show on Twitch reads. “Kinda like popular sitcoms of the past, except that it never stops.”
