Story AI - Use A.I to write a story

by•

Write the story you couldn’t quite find the words to complete with this easy to use OpenAI model. Input 40 words to start, and watch what the model comes up with. It’s powered by the GPT-2 774M model released on August 20th 2019 by OpenAI.

Hey there, Product Hunters! I’m Vittorio, I’ve made StoryAI in my spare time. I hope you’ll like it! It’s an easy way to try out the powerful A.I. models that Elon Musk-funded OpenAI has released in open source. So far, users have prompted the AI to create news articles (“President Trump is buying Greenland in a surprise deal. The state of California is traded in return.” https://storyai.botsociety.io/sh... ), scientific essays ( https://storyai.botsociety.io/sh... ), short stories ( https://storyai.botsociety.io/sh... ) and more. Feel free to ask me anything! Any feedback appreciated

@vittorio_banfi Cool, i saw that some stories are non-english and become gibberish, what's your solution to this?

@graphgrail The GPT-2 model was trained on English content by the OpenAI team. If they release other models for other languages, then we could put them up too. For now, I would use it with english to achieve the best results

I like the concept. I have tried 5-6 story ideas 30min ago, haven't received anything yet. How long does it take?

@jjloic The peak of traffic from Product Hunt slowed the queue! I just woke up now, I'm beefing the servers up

@talha_azhar Thanks!

Idea is great but it is taking more than 4 minutes to generate the story. I hope you will make it more efficient in future.

@hammad_akbar Yes, I've just added a couple more servers. Exploring other ways to make it faster. Thanks for the feedback!

I am very interested in the technology. Though, I am not sure how your tool is helping anybody... What is the idea behind it? Who is should use it and for what? I could see some benefit, if there was the possibility to not share it. That would mean that I could use it in some way. Right now the only reason I can see is that people can test this technology.

@danischenker thanks for the feedback! Anyone can use it, it’s an opportunity for non-technical people to play with modern A.I. We want anyone to be able to use first-hand the powerful technology that the AI community is open sourcing.
Dani Schenker🇨🇭
@vittorio_banfi Ok, cool. In this case... that makes total sense :) How hard would it be to do that for another language?

@danischenker you need lots of data to create those models. We are using the 774M parameters model opensourced by OpenAI. To train on a new language, you need both $$ and data

Insane! 🔥 Well done Vittorio, just submitted an input text and can't wait to read the AI Story. Feature request: it would be great to search for specific keywords or to browse stories by category. Congrats to you and @botsociety team!

@botsociety @simonemonetti thanks Simone! I'll work on search and categories, those are amazing ideas that I would like to see myself

SO, I am coming back with a comment. It looks like there is a a big challenge ahead of this tool, as it looks like each story starts good but shortly after that it breaks and the bot starts talking about a completely different topic. My text was a dry bussines text, first lines from Story AI looked good but then all of a sudden AI started talking about League of Legends ("Welcome to Part Two of our 5 part series on the most overlooked elements of League of Legends.") ??. After that it continues with some mambo jumbo...and thats it.

@nenad_simicevic interesting. Can you link your story? I've seen that happening for certain prompts more than for others. For example, news stories seem to perform better than technical essays - in that, they stay consistent for longer
Ishtiaq Rahman
@nenad_simicevic I also noticed this. It starts really strong then becomes a bit incoherent after a while. Still, really impressive.
Nenad
@vittorio_banfi here you go. https://storyai.botsociety.io/sh... I tried something else. I decided to write a start of the story that wont be techical and it wont be a news story. Sort of "day in the nature" type of the thing. I used a couple of words in my intro (cottage, mountain,sun) to make AI clearly understand what the story would be about (nature) and it delivered better results. It does have inconsistencies, but overall it is not a bad text. https://storyai.botsociety.io/sh...

@nenad_simicevic Interesting. I feel like it's less effective with 'Medium style' generic blog posts, but if you try more technical things - like a math dissertation - then the A.I. has an easier time in remaining consistent

@sararahmcb you'd love this 👀

How many words will final document have? What is the max number of words?
Vittorio Banfi
Maker
Launching soon!
@nenad_simicevic I suggest to use at least 40 words to prompt a good response. The final document will be around a page worth of content. You can check any story already created for reference, for example https://storyai.botsociety.io/sh...

I used to think creativity was our moat against the machines. After reading a few of these stories, I don't think the moat will last much longer.

@frank_locascio1 I was surprised too. But maybe it just becomes an arms race? Kind of, the humans will need to get waaay more creative to compete?

looks great , but writing a 40 CHrs it a bit too long lol , is the are a copy from that script for sell ?

@ezzaky_abd You can write less (around 30 words) actually, but the results will not be as good. The model has to pick up enough content from you to be able to produce something meaningful

Really cool product. I'm sure with enough training data this product will get even better.

Good product! My suggestion would be adding upvote and downvote buttons on the generated stories.

@akshay_arunkumar2 That sounds like a great idea!
Blanca Berger
The idea is interesting. Unfortunately, I waited 4 hours and did not get my story. I hope that one day I will receive it at my email address)
Tyler Nass
Mine came in a few hours (somedays ago), probably the servers were full. The reply wasn't cool as I thought, but it's crazy it can do something like this!

made a story - pretty dope! love the UI and the website design. Can't wait for that AI to evolve and come in as a replacement for the human content creation!

With this models you can forget about long evenings with sitting and thinks what to write https://www.theodysseyonline.com... , just generate what you want. Easy in usage and really helpful. Thanks a lot!
Cryend Uno
It just says that it’s being generated for 30 minutes, then deletes it without sending the email.
