The idea is good. But when I tried playing it, the story generated doesn't make sense. Looks like it still needs more work to be realistic. Is the AI keeping track of the story as it goes? Because the bird which attacked me with an evil grin and stole my fork asked me not to kill it when I asked him to help me working in the fields...

You are Dori, a noble living in the kingdom of Larion. You have a pouch of gold and a small dagger. You are awakened by one of your servants who tells you that your keep is under attack. You look out the window and see a large army marching towards your door

> escape with the servants and the gold

You run to the servants' room and grab the gold and the servant's bodies. The soldiers fire arrows at you but miss. They fire their crossbows at the corpses but they also miss. You throw your gold into the air and jump up and down as loud as you can

---

My servants became corpses before the large army even arrived xD

From what I understand about GPT-2 you shouldn't expect the story to make coherent sense. It can produce individual responses that are surprisingly appropriate but it doesn't actually have an understanding of anything that is happening.

IMHO you can use GPT 2 to augment writing not replacing it.

Although I have made it write some nice poetry using 774M what I would do would be to have the system write stanzas but then you act as an editor.
