History of the chip, from Edison to EUV

A 14-minute Chinese-language documentary that turns the book 《芯片简史》 (A Brief History of Chips) into a narrated story from Edison's filament to EUV lithography. One sentence plus the book made it in a single pass, with edge-tts narration.

You'll need

  • The book or long document the video should cover, where the agent can read it
  • edge-tts, for the same narration voices
How it was made

The prompt says "这本书" (this book), so the book was given to the agent; the post quotes the creator's earlier recommendation of 《芯片简史》. Narration uses edge-tts, an open-source Python library for the voices behind Microsoft Edge's read-aloud feature. Asked which audio was used, the creator said it was Opus 5.5's own choice and they hadn't specified one. They call it a single pass with no tuning. The app or harness isn't named beyond the Claude Max plan.

About 20% of a 5-hour window on Claude Max, according to the creator's replies.

The creator's earlier post about the book

Look notesby Reference

A dark, quiet documentary of thin gold and white line diagrams on near-black, such as a transistor profile, a chip floor plan, an optical grid and a lithography lens, with large faint Chinese words for each theme and the year in the corner.

Color
Near-black with a warm amber vignette, hairline gold and off-white linework, and one glowing gold light in the lithography scene.
Type
Thin Chinese serif for theme words (质疑 冷落 封杀, 建构), a gold chapter label in the top left ("芯片简史 — 02 创造性失败"), the year set large in the top right over a "否决档案" count out of 21, and white Chinese subtitles centered at the bottom.
Framing
Mostly empty black around one centered line drawing, with the chapter and the year in the top corners and a thin gold progress line along the bottom edge.
Sound
Narration with edge-tts voices, according to the creator.
Structure
Numbered chapters keyed to years, not strictly in order: after the Second World War (1947), a mesa transistor that fails at a tap of a pencil (1959), 1960, a chip floor plan (1971), an optical grid (1969), 1979, and a lithography lens with TSMC's 林本坚 (2002), ending on an epilogue (尾声).
