Self-plug, but I made https://writeup.ai (open-sourced) for a similar reason. It writes with you, not just at you :)
This is just awsome. I from time to time write speeches and sometimes I struggle trying to get to the next idea, this will surely help.
I tend to think automating research and priors for human writers is more fruitful than automating writing. Generate text for parsers; generate outlines and links for writers who write for a human audience.
All cute, all limited. Sure this tech has great potential, but I don’t think they found it yet
I think I recall TWiML/AI podcast featured a company that used ML for writing scripts for movies and such. Apparently scripts have tons of filler and other things that could be automated, the idea is to leave the creative work for the human I guess.
Remind me of the story about Star Trek scripts, where the screenwriters used to leave blanks labeled (TECH) to be filled in with largely meaningless technobabble like "multi-phasic temporal convergence." You could totally generate that, these days a computer could even infer what kind of technobabble to insert from the context.
