故事腳本寫不出來時的輔助小工具

最近在研究生成藝術，附帶發現許多蠻特別的工具。

這個工具只要在網站空格裡輸入向上面那段關鍵文字，它會根據所輸入的關鍵字組合生成一段小故事，雖然不知道背後是如何運作，但作為寫作的靈感幫助還蠻有用，以上是我輸入的一段Prompt，只是很簡單的幾個字，就生出了五段前後連貫的短文。

試了很多次，關鍵字愈多，故事就會愈長，但不清楚可否指定圖像風格，試著輸入影像風格或藝術家的提示，但輸出的圖像似乎沒有甚麼差異，都是固定的水彩畫風，但我想，他的重點是文字與畫面的配搭，特別是文字敘述讀起來還蠻通暢的，或許可以作為創意靈感枯竭時的協助！以下是我輸入的幾行字，生出來的故事圖文，或許有興趣的朋友可以去了解看看

Grandpa Joe was always a bit forgetful, but since he'd retired and begun living alone, it seemed like his memory was slipping more and more. His family would stop by to check on him regularly, but it was getting to the point where they were seriously considering finding a nursing home for him. One day, as Joe was shuffling around his house, he got frustrated and began yelling at his reflection in the mirror. Suddenly, he didn't recognize the old man staring back at him. He was disoriented and confused, and didn't know how to get back to his chair. He wandered around for a bit before finally sitting down on the floor, feeling defeated.

喬爺爺總是有點健忘，但自從他退休開始一個人生活後，他的記憶力似乎越來越差了。 他的家人會定期過來看他，但已經到了他們正在認真考慮為他尋找療養院的地步。 有一天，喬在他的房子裡走來走去，他很沮喪，開始對鏡子裡的自己大喊大叫。 突然，他認不出那個盯著他看的老者了。 他迷失了方向和困惑，不知道如何回到他的椅子上。 他轉了一圈，終於在地板上坐了下來，感覺很挫敗。

At that moment, his little puppy, Benny, came over and sat down next to him, licking his hand in an attempt to comfort him. Joe had gotten Benny shortly after he'd moved into the house - he'd always wanted a dog, and figured that since he was alone now, it would be a good idea to have some company. Benny had been a loyal friend to Joe, and was always there when he needed him.

就在這時，他的小狗班尼走過來，在他身邊坐下，舔了舔他的手，試圖安慰他。 喬搬進房子後不久就得到了班尼——他一直想要一隻狗，並認為既然他現在一個人，找人陪伴是個好主意。 班尼一直是喬的忠實朋友，當他需要他時，他總是在那裡。

Joe sat on the floor for a while, until he finally started to feel sleepy. He leaned against the wall and dozed off, with Benny still by his side. A few hours later, he was woken up by a knock on the door. It was his family, come to check on him. They were relieved to find him safe, but when they saw the state of the house, they knew it was time to take him to the nursing home. Joe didn't want to go, but he knew it was for the best.

喬在地板上坐了一會兒，直到他終於開始感到困倦。 他靠在牆上打瞌睡，班尼還在他身邊。 幾個小時後，他被敲門聲吵醒。 是他的家人過來看看他。 發現他安全了，他們鬆了一口氣，但當他們看到房子的狀況時，他們知道是時候帶他去療養院了。 喬不想去，但他知道這是最好的。

As he was being helped into the car, he turned to Benny and said, "Don't worry, boy. I'll be back soon." Benny whined and watched as Joe was driven away.

當他被扶上車時，他轉向班尼說：“別擔心，孩子。我很快就會回來。” 班尼嗚咽著看著喬被載走。

A few weeks later, Joe was settled into his new room at the nursing home. He missed Benny terribly, but was happy to be surrounded by people again. He was making friends and starting to feel like part of the community. One day, as he was sitting in the common room, he saw Benny come bounding in. He couldn't believe his eyes - Benny had somehow found him! They were reunited, and Joe knew that everything was going to be alright.

幾週後，喬搬進了療養院的新房間。 他非常想念班尼，但又很高興再次被人們包圍。 他正在結交朋友，並開始覺得自己是社區的一員。 有一天，他坐在公共休息室裡，看見班尼蹦蹦跳跳地走了進來。他簡直不敢相信自己的眼睛——班尼不知怎麼找到了他！ 他們團聚了，喬知道一切都會好起來的。

雖然故事讀起來好像還沒有結束呢，但以上是不是閱讀起來似乎蠻有連貫性的呢？關鍵字裡的「winter」可惜好像也都沒有用到，或許就有待作者自己加油添醋到故事裡面了，總要留點事情給作者吧，但這樣共創的方式，按比例原則，AI應該要是放第一作者吧？

個人覺得AI工具雖然很方便，但會不會讓人們愈來愈懶得思考了呢？有這樣的工具，作文都不用想半天了，但會不會寫出來的作文都差不多呢？或許還需要更多的人來驗證看看了，把這些工具當作輔助與幫助，然後讓自己有時間做其他更想做的事情，這樣會不會比較正面積極一點？
