I’m interested in automatically generating lengthy, coherent stories of 100,000+ words from a single prompt using an open source local large language model (LLM). I came across the “Awesome-Story-Generation” repository which lists relevant papers describing promising methods like “Re3: Generating Longer Stories With Recursive Reprompting and Revision”, announced in this Twitter thread from October 2022 and “DOC: Improving Long Story Coherence With Detailed Outline Control”, announced in this Twitter thread from December 2022. However, these papers used GPT-3, and I was hoping to find similar techniques implemented with open source tools that I could run locally. If anyone has experience or knows of resources that could help me achieve long, coherent story generation with an open source LLM, I would greatly appreciate any advice or guidance.
I think so, too. I mean we also have human authors end up at a random camping site somewhere in Europe in the 70s and come up with the random idea of writing “The hitchhikers guide to the galaxy”. Either we allow randomness to inspire a novel. Or we’d need to say a lot of old novels aren’t original ideas either.
