Show HN: A short sci-fi story written with GPT-3 and illustrated with DALL-E 2 Hi there HN, Disclaimer: I've submitted a Show HN as well as the link for this general project before, but particularly like this one short story so want to submit one for it specifically. Hope it's not considered spammy! I and a collaborator who writes sci-fi just released the short story "The Great Filter Button" - https://ift.tt/xFKTIpt Here's why it's relevant to HN: most of the text for it was generated by GPT-3 (with human curation, using SudoWrite) and it was entirely illustrated using DALL-E 2 and MidJourney, and a bit of DreamStudio aka Stable Diffusion (of course with human selection of prompts) AND it narrated using neural voice synthesis (via BeyondWords). And I think it came out very well! To my mind it is a pretty good example of how the newest commercial tools by powered by learned media synthesis models can be leveraged by humans to make art. It also shows some of the limits: DALLE-2, MidJourney, and Stable Diffusion all have trouble with more complex prompts and don't follow various aspects of them, the voice synthesis is still pretty robot-y, and the GPT-3 written parts are heavily guided by human text (and the whole story is quite short). We plan to keep exploring these realm of human-AI creative collaboration by releasing weekly short stories with this newsletter, and would love feedback, suggestions, or even entire submissions of your own creative work done using AI.
