After the last post, I had a thought. ChatGPT isn’t that great at coming up with a story, but what if you gave it an outline?

I wanted a story that had an open ending. Mostly I decided that anything I use AI for I’ll put it up for free (details, including link below).

So I used my CLOSAT game to come up with a writing prompt. Then I used ChatGPT to come up with two characters: The Main Character and a secondary one. As in the image above, it was Jaxon and his sister, Scarlett.

After I used a short story outline for a basic plot. It’s one of many plot outlines and this one is great for open-ended short stories.

Then I had some trouble with ChatGPT. As you can see, my saved chat history is missing. As (almost) predicted, the page crashed, and I wasn’t able to access this conversation. After a couple of days, I could finally access the history and continued the project.

It’s interesting to note, ChatGPT wrote exactly 1500 characters, cutting it off mid-sentence.

I put it in the Google doc anyway, for context.

 

 

There’s no dialogue, and it’s certainly better than the last one, but again, it seems so generic. I prefer dialogue, even if there’s a little, because it humanizes the characters. This looks more like an expanded plot. Something some writer or movie maker can expand into a book. Since I used OpenAI’s ChatGPT to make the story, I’m giving it away for free. You don’t even have to give me credit, although I wouldn’t mind a review for Elizabeth: Heritage Journey.

“So, what should we do now, Nahaeda?” Zakkon asked. “I didn’t expect Josias to fall into the portal with Naehus.”

The giant moaned and looked at his father’s lifeless body. “We mourn our losses first.” He let out another low rumble and then a long, soulful roar.

“I do not blame you if you want to destroy us,” Zakkon whispered. “We never know if this might happen again.”

“Hmm. Natisiens need Inersiens. We destroy you, we will destroy us.” The giant put his hand on Zakkon’s upper back. “While many of us are angry, we know many Inersiens who are good. But we do need assurance.”

“How?” Zakkon continued looking at his feet. “Could we prevent this from happening again?”

“We must come to an agreement,” Nahaeda said. “After I bury my father. After my people recognize me as leader, and after your people recognize you as leader.”

“I’m so young! I don’t have any guidance,” Zakkon cried, staring at the empty horizon where the portal used to be. “My father isn’t here to help.”

“Hmm,” the giant grunted with a stiff nod. “Yes, we are both on our own.”
