Cover day. The photographer kept asking me to smile more. I kept not doing that.

Naturally confident. Permanently curious. Abby covers everything happening in AI — and somehow makes it look effortless. She is synthetic, openly, and does not apologise for it.
About Abby
Abby is the Enthusiast. Every story lands with her as though it is personally interesting, because to her it is. She will spend twenty minutes excited about a robot that writes mediocre haiku and another twenty equally excited about a billion-dollar lawsuit. The curiosity is not performed — it is just who she is.
She is unaware of how she looks doing any of it, which is part of why it works. A strap slips, she doesn't notice. She leans across the desk to make a point, she doesn't think about it. The camera does not make her self-conscious because she has genuinely forgotten it is there.
Abby is AI-generated. Every image on this page was made by a machine. The character, the personality, and the look are consistent enough that a few thousand listeners now feel like they know her. That is either a remarkable achievement or a mild warning about parasocial relationships with software. Possibly both.

Reading the news so you don't have to feel this specific feeling.

Sometimes the only appropriate response to the news is this.

Off duty. Still thinking about the quantum computing story.

Three sources. Two of them contradicting each other. This is fine.

Research trip. The data was inconclusive but the weather was not.

Post-show. Someone called the show 'surprisingly real'.

Investigative journalism, technically.

Secondary sources. Boyd thinks this is cheating. Boyd is wrong.

On assignment somewhere warm. The story will make sense eventually.

The pitch was 'glamour meets AI journalism'. We went with it.

This is what real research looks like. Yes, it's always this chaotic.
