Radical SERP Searcher

• Extract questions from imageboards.
• Transform them into queryable phrases.
• Search these questions on different search engines
• Take screenshots of the SERP via 4CAT.

Departs from a "platform perspectivist" approach: studying one platform through the lens of another.

Install and run

1. Install dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Copy-paste config-example.py, rename it to config.py, and insert the required variables:

   • OpenAI API key
   • Google Cloud Platform API key
   • 4CAT API token
   • URL to a 4CAT server that runs the Screenshot Generator extension.

3. Set other config options (like TEMPERATURE or MIN_TOXICITY).

4. Run start.py. Do this over time to keep track of emerging radical questions and how search engines respond to these.
