Hi all! I've been working to integrate GPT-3 into Notebook.ai for the past couple days and decided to publish this repo, which is effectively my notes on what prompts/settings work for generating various core pieces of fictional worldbuilding (characters, creatures, plants, governments, superpowers, etc). It's set up as a bunch of "experiments" so I can toy with different domains and prompt formats and each one generates outputs at 4 different temperatures (effectively, amounts of randomness/chaos/creativity).

In addition to creating new pages, I'm also experimenting with ways to expand on existing pages in the world with GPT-3 and the repo includes two different approaches: an "expander" which adds multiple unguided field/values (e.g. adding hair color/style to a character) and a "suggester" which takes a page and a field and suggests answers to that specific field (e.g. suggesting answers to a "Prejudices" field on a particular character).

The plan is to use GPT-3 to let users easily expand their world by using their existing notebook pages in the various prompt formats. Based on this testing, this should be a good way to generate these new worldbuilding pages (characters, creatures, etc) within the genre and style of the existing world and build off existing content (for example, creating characters that work in already-established towns, creating foods from existing creatures, etc).

Obviously, a proper demo needs a partially-created world to work with, but I think the repo does a good job demonstrating the exciting possibilities of this specific use-case with GPT-3.

Broken link. Repo might be private.

Whoops, you were absolutely correct. Forgot it was even private in the first place. It's public now. Thanks!
