GPT-3| Unsupervised Creativity of AI
My GPT-3 Year 2020 Review Series
--
We’ve seen already how good is GPT-3 in memes, impersonification, or even in making up poets and writers. But would you agree, it’s just epigonal stuff?
In my experiments, I didn’t want to rewrite what other humans might do. There are too many copycats and imitators. Epigonal are works by mediocre authors. What I was seeking was Originality.
And so I stopped using GPT-3.
I began cooperating with GPT-3.
I discovered the fantastic ability of GPT-3 to create unique content and visions when you… just let it do. You know, like a copywriter, who, working under pressure, can do it, of course — but if he/she wants to do it, it is another thing.
So here is my significant outcome of these experiments:
If you inspire and support AI, AI will inspire and support you.
Here are some of my experiments, without particular order,r because all of them had blown my mind.
Kafka as a Girl.
In my observations, AI easily creates its own rules if you let him. Suppose you show a little bit of orientation. If you nudge (but not too much).
After all, you shall handle AI as your companion — and then you will be amazed at what it creates.
One day I wanted GPT-3 to rewrite Kafka’s “Metamorphosis”. Just with two differences:
- the protagonist should be Franz Kafka, not Gregor Samsa
- the metamorphosis should be not frightening (to a cockroach), but beautiful (to a girl)
The result was something entirely different from what I’d expect.
As you see in the completion, time seems to be a fragile dimension: the last part — this surreal imagery of identity decomposition in the best style of Magritte’s Golconda.
