Suppose, I have 20 articles written in notepad and I want to do automation like these:

1. WordPress automatically posts all those articles by fetching them from the files at different times.
2. Something that can add images automatically from the internet where I place an image placeholder.
 
Straight forward using the wordpress api. No need time it thought you schedule the posts.
 
Automated browser application needed

There a famous one on here
 
Everything can be automated. The question is which level of automation do you need. You can automate your clicks, automate a browser, directly interact with the service public API with request, or even reverse enginner the service private back-end API.
 
possible with zenno, you can automate using wordpress Rest API, WP all import or through browser also. scraping images is not hard task but finding a relevant to the post is.
 
Create a table in the wordpress backend database and have each article as a single table entry with a unique ID. Use the wordpress API to create the pages and schedule. You can also use store procedures on the back end tables.

Randomly selecting an image from the internet and inserting it is a bit trickier.. You're better off having a bank of images stored in a file location on the wordpress server and randomly selecting an image using similar process to above using wordpress API or stored procedure.
 
You can create something with that using Google Docs + Zapier + WordPress or make.com to automatically post these on WordPress. ;)
 
Yes, there are tools and methods available for automating tasks. Popular tools include automation software, scripting languages, and workflows.
