AI-Generated Stories

Hey all, first thread.

Recently, I've started using a neural network to generate prompts. I've been testing it to see if it's at a usable stage, and I decided to start an experiment involving exactly that. The concept of the story would be to have a "profile" for users in the 2.x branches, and to put prompts in the 3.x branches. These prompts would be continued by the neural network down the line, and the questions/answers would be user-controlled.

The neural network cannot recognize a cohesive timeline. It cannot generate plots or ideas for stories. It can only continue what it's been given and that's it. This means that branches may die in as short as a few chapters.

This is all incredibly experimental, and I want to hear people's thoughts on it.

Cheers.

 

I'd be interested to see what it cooks up.

If you need someone to throw bits and pieces of original story material and prompts at it, I'd be happy to help! Kind of sounds like a more interactive version of AI Dungeon.

 

Nice. Sexy AI Dungeon. That's not to say that AI Dungeon isn't already sexy, though.

 

AI Dungeon is surprisingly worse.

There is an example prompt I made from a reddit post from 5 years ago that surprisingly worked really well with the AI. There's a couple of problems here and there with consistency, though.

 

Nice! What sort of net are you using?
And is there any way to view your project?

 

I'm using the GPT-2 language model released by OpenAI. Technical details are in the story.

Friedman recently approved the story, you can find it at https://chyoa.com/story/Artificial-Intelligence.28344

 

So to contribute, I would just put something in (up to the same amount as the bolded text in your example) and then you'd update it with the rest the AI added?

Also, is it fine if I use a piece I've written for another story? It might be interesting to examine the differences.

 

That's the idea, yeah. The example I wrote was to combine the prompt with the results so you can see what's being contributed.

Also, yeah, I don't mind. I'm interested in seeing the differences as well.

 

Okay, I threw one in! If I need to edit anything to make it work with the AI, let me know (or feel free to edit whatever you need to yourself).

 

I'm really sorry I haven't worked on it yet. I've gotten hooked on watching HBO's Chernobyl. I'll probably have it up tomorrow.
