This project utilizes a chain of GPT-4, Stable Diffusion, and Anthropic API calls to generate an original fantasy novel. Users can provide an initial prompt and enter how many chapters they’d like it to be, and the AI then generates an entire novel, outputting an EPUB file compatible with e-book readers. A 15-chapter novel can cost as little as $4 to produce, and is written in just a few minutes.
The AI is asked to generate a list of potential plots based on a given prompt. It then selects the most engaging plot, improves upon it, and extracts a title. After that, it generates a detailed storyline with a specified number of chapters, and then tries to improve upon that storyline. Each chapter is then individually written by the AI, following the plot and taking into account the content of previous chapters. Finally, a prompt to design the cover art is generated, and the cover is created. Finally, it’s all pulled together, and the novel is compiled into an EPUB file.

Tyler Cowen’s GPT-4 interview with Jonathan Swift is a neat idea but results are oddly unsatisfying. Pretty clear it’s a bot, and not just because the transcript is read with too much formality. Answers are, well, robotic. The bot shows no awareness of the host or the present context. Cmon, how could The real JS would have tailored his answer to the times. This reads like an undergrad essay exercise.

Here’s how it summarizes Michael Lustgarten’s “Is Low LDL Bad For The Epigenetic Pace of Aging?” from his Conquer Aging or Die Trying YouTube channel.
The speaker analyzes correlations between his diet, biomarkers, and epigenetic pace of aging over 12 tests. No foods or nutrients significantly correlate with pace of aging, but DHEA sulfate and LDL cholesterol do, suggesting higher levels correlate with slower aging. The speaker plans to increase LDL levels slightly through more coconut butter to test if it further slows his aging pace, while aiming to remain in the safe range for heart disease risk.

Music

Suno AI is backed by Antonio Rodriguez from VC firm Matrix.
a startup named Suno. All it took to summon it from the void was a simple text prompt: “solo acoustic Mississippi Delta blues about a sad AI.” To be maximally precise, the song is the work of two AI models in collaboration: Suno’s model creates all the music itself, while calling on OpenAI’s ChatGPT
The goal is a music service that will create music just for you.
Co-founders Shulman, Freyberg, Georg Kucsko, and Martin Camacho, all machine-learning experts, worked together until 2022 at another Cambridge company, Kensho Technologies, which focused on finding AI solutions to complex business problems
Suno’s biggest potential competitor so far seems to be Google’s Dream Track, which has obtained licenses that allow users to make their own songs using famous voices like Charlie Puth’s via a similar prompt-based interface.
Udio is a music creation app by ex-Deepmind researchers.

Recommending Books and Movies
A zero-shot recommendation system is an academic study that evaluates using ChatGPT as a recommendation engine. Di Palma et al. (2023) (Github source code)

Additionally, ChatGPT showcased domain-specific knowledge, particularly in books and movies domains. Moreover, it tended to recommend popular items and exhibited a remarkable proficiency in handling the cold start problem.
