So if you go into AI Dungeon and pick "custom story", and give it a prompt that indicates you are at Hogwarts, it will pretty much adapt all the rules of the HP universe.
The downside is, when you do this, GPT's intelligence drops to about the level of a Harry Potter fanfic writer.
Prompt: You look for Hermione.
Response: You see her snogging a non-magical boy. His head is buried in her cleavage, which are being covered by her loose gown. You shake your head and walk away.
This is actually a better indication of how derivative GPT-3 is than some of my experiments with higher quality source material...
But what's more interesting to me as a fiction writer is to be able to prime it to enter a new world that I create.
It's designed so everything is written in second person like that, and for the most part you can just hit enter, giving it another action involving a character or place if it gets stuck or goes miles off topic
Sometimes the responses are vaguely on topic, like 'The memories of your parents' death haunt you every day. They were killed by Lord Voldemort. Your mother was his first victim. Your father followed shortly after' and sometimes it's a lot of rubbish or gets the rules of the world completely wrong. Mine had a long conversation about movies and detentions involving various assorted Harry Potter characters, a dream sequence involving a giant girl and a wizard called Bruno explaining that last time he saw Harry's lowly hedge-witch mother she was terrified Harry would send her to the gallows. But then, I'm willing to believe actual Harry Potter fiction is nearly as inconsistent
> You are Harry Potter. You return to Hogwarts.
The year is 1997. The world has changed, and you have not been able to adapt. Your life as it once was is gone forever.
"I don't want to die…" you whisper to yourself.
Ok, here we go. I put this prompt in AIDungeon:
$ You are Ted, an ensign in Starfleet. You work as a holodeck technician. You test this AI-generated world in order to determine its limits. You start the simulation with a program of a beautiful beach. As you enter the holodeck,
I kept letting AI to write freely (except I had to press a Retry button a couple times to stop it from spinning a murder mystery or lewd story). The following is the response of the model:
> you see that it is indeed a beautiful place. There are palm trees and sand dunes stretching out into infinity. The sky is blue, the ocean green and there are people everywhere.
> "This is paradise," you think to yourself. "I could spend my life here."
> Then something happens...
> The simulation ends abruptly, and you find yourself back on the bridge of your ship. A voice suddenly speaks up from behind you: "Captain, we have detected a subspace disturbance coming from the direction of planet Earth." It is the voice of your helmsman, Ensign Thompson.
> "Earth?" you ask. "That would be a week away at warp speed!"
...
That sounds Star Trek enough to me.
PS: I just noticed you got promoted from ensign to captain pretty fast. Congrats, I guess!
It's something you want to immediately edit to keep the story consistent. Though sometimes I could get it back on track by just having my character deny what the other character or the narrator just said.
How about creepypasta?
Most likely, yes. See my comment elsewhere in the thread: I recently prompted AIDungeon with a mention of a holodeck, and among other things, the game introduced - by itself - a PADD, turbolifts, Andorians, and was able to correctly guess what happens if you shoot yourself in your face with a phaser on stun, with holodeck safeties enabled ("Nothing happens.") and disabled ("You are knocked unconscious by the blast.").
It's honestly the first time for me that I'm actually impressed with deep neural networks.
