Code for https://aitales.themkat.net . EDIT 2024: Only for playing with AI and seeing what it can do. AI is leeching the web, and I generally hate what it is doing to the world. OpenAI has been stealing content for use with their theft-machine which lazy people love using...

Sequelizer?

Could be a fun experiment to be able to generate sequels to stories. Input could be the story id (date_title) or maybe just the file itself.

There should also be a property on the page indicating that it is indeed a sequel and a link to the previous entry in the series. Something like <- Previous Story Name --- Part x of x in story --- Next story name ->

Should we also have a way to list stories in a series? Should we make the pipeline suggest a series name? That we can change in a PR off course.

Could utilize ChatGPT models:

Button to get a random story

As the title says. Maybe some potential users would enjoy such a functionality? We are starting to have quite a lot of stories now.

Make it possible to use workflow_dispatch inputs in story generation

Sometimes we might want to generate a story with some specific keywords, genres etc. This should be possible to override in the workflow inputs so we can tweak the stories.

Example use case:
There are a ton of mystery and comedy stories, but not enough fantasy love stories between frogs and dragons. Generate a fantasy story with a love story between a frog and a dragon, and someone named Karsten should be in love with the dragon already to make some drama.

There might also be some use cases for the sequelizer.

Make the story generator less predictable

Some of the stories are very predictable. Suggestions for making it less so, and less cliche:

• More clear directions in keywords

Workflow to be run on PRs to change titles

Sometimes titles are generic, bland or almost the same as something we have seen before. It should be possible to create a workflow we can run on PR branches that calls OpenAI APIs and creates a new title. Will probably need some changes in the Rust code, so unsure how to do that in a clean nice way (i.e, not just forcing it in).
