Chat GPT Horror Stories Illustrate How Useful It Can Be as a Creative Tool

Artists and creatives may be the ideal candidates for AI in its current state.

This week, ChatGPT has been writing horror story summaries, some of which sound fantastic. It demonstrates that AI could serve as an infinite source of excellent writing prompts for artists, writers, and television and film producers.

Copying is one of the fundamentals of human creativity. Duplicating and modifying. Students of the arts may recline on museum floors and copy paintings and sculptures. Almost always, musicians learn to play the tunes of other musicians. Then, after they have internalized what they have learned, they create new paintings or compositions that are influenced by what they have learned. AI functions identically, minus the inventive human spark that drives transformation. Therefore, it would be the ideal artist's companion.

"As an AI industry professional, I can state that AI is more useful when used as a collaborator. AI technologies have the potential to be potent creative aids for humans. For instance, they can help generate ideas and provide additional insights into situations that would otherwise require human expertise, according to Oliver Goodwin, founder and CEO of AI audio and video platform Synthesys, who told Lifewire via email that his company's technology can assist in the generation of ideas and the provision of additional insights.

 

Adding 'AI' to 'Assistant'

Check out this Reddit thread titled "A two-sentence horror story that terrifies artificial intelligence." It is a compilation of Chat GPT horror stories inspired by a group of admirers of the horror writer HP Lovecraft. The outcomes are not particularly original, but they are all excellent starting points for any horror writer.

The news tends to concentrate on the finished products of these generative AI tools, despite the fact that the images are frequently a bit strange (AI, like humans, struggles to draw hands) and the text is adequate but never enticing. However, as a rapid idea generator, AI is remarkable. You could use it to generate narrative ideas for original works or episode concepts for ongoing television series. Songwriters, similar to William S. Burroughs and David Bowie, could have it generate verse and then cut up the text in order to reconfigure it in new forms.

Or you could simply ask it to generate a catalog of period character names or fictitious addresses that appear authentic.

"I believe that AI may one day possess the capabilities of a 'collaborator'. A consideration for ChatGPT users is that, despite being a remarkable instrument, its 'intelligence' is the result of human engineering. In other words, how the creators program it has a significant impact on ChatGPT's outputs," poet and author R. M. S. Thornton wrote in an email to Lifewire.

 

Miles Off

Creative individuals are responsive to prompts and constraints. If you are familiar with Miles Davis' Kind of Blue, you know that the musicians who collaborated on it improvised and that each composition was recorded in a single take. However, if you peruse the back of the record sleeve, you'll notice that Davis provided cues for each song. In the album notes, pianist Bill Evans describes "All Blues" as a series of five scales, each to be performed for as long as the soloist desires until the series is completed.

Davis and his collaborators created an astonishing improvisation based on their knowledge, skill, experience, reactions to one another, and, of course, Davis' prompt.

"The distinction between AI and human creators is that AI lacks the true awareness to be cognizant of these limitations. Therefore, it is creatively constrained within a framework it cannot escape," says Thornton.

Instead of considering the user's written prompt to be the commencement and the AI's output to be the result, we could consider the AI's creation to be the prompt and the human "output" to be the result. In this regard, it is comparable to a variety of tools designed to jolt the mind into a new creative direction, such as Brian Eno and Peter Schmidt's Oblique Strategies, a deck of cards comprising remarks and suggestions intended to unblock the mind.
