The Story Book feature of Gemini is a hell of a lot of fun. I used text from an old blog post to create a story book, and it did a very good job adding little details to fill out my account into a full story:
 |
| The Master of Fate |
Interestingly, the first time I forgot to tell it to pitch the book at adults, and it generated something a lot more light hearted:
 |
| The Curious Traveler |
Finally, I asked it to create one based on my really boring adventure in SWG from the same post above:
 |
| The Grind |
To me it's actually a much more entertaining than the first one, which runs completely counter to the point I was trying to make in the post! However, Gemini somehow figured out I was talking about a MMO, and added appropriate small details, which is quite impressive. It also came up with a title that encapsulates the point I was going for quite well.
Another surprise I got when trying to find the Storybook feature I first read about on Bhagpuss's blog, is that there is a small press that published children's books called Gemini Books.* I have to think that Gemini becoming synonymous with AI produced children's books could do some damage to their brand. I wonder how that will play out.
It's also hard to believe that this blog has been active for longer now than it was after I first started it. I fired it up in 2008 and then shut it down in 2012. However, I came back in 2018 and now have posted at least a little for eight full years. I even have a mostly written post comparing MMORPGs to eurypterids that will go up soonish, and I feel like three posts a year still counts as "active." Happy hunting regardless, and thanks for stopping by!
*Oddly, that publisher has become much harder to find on Google today, I had to use Bing to get that link.
