Part 8/13:
He notes that exploring structured prompts yields more coherent, high-quality outlines. However, capturing full-length, scene-by-scene details proves difficult due to token limits and the current AI models' understanding constraints. Despite these limitations, the process can produce useful frameworks for guiding novel writing.
Limitations: Why Full-Length Novels Remain Out of Reach
Throughout his experiments, Shapiro emphasizes that current AI models cannot reliably generate full-length novels. The primary hurdles include:
- Token Limitations: GPT-3's maximum context window (~2000 tokens) restricts the amount of content it can process or generate at once. This makes writing long-duration stories in a single pass impractical.
