Part 8/11:
Layered expansion: First, generate broad elements (themes, premises), then elaborate on each with additional prompts.
Iterative refinement: Use feedback loops where the AI revisits and improves previous outputs.
Structured layers: Organize the process into stages—initial idea, detailed setting, character profiles, plot sequence—each refined through multiple passes.
He underscores that prompt engineering and automation can accelerate the creative process, letting writers produce more material faster, then focus on polishing and deepening their stories.
Future Directions: Toward a Complete Automated Workflow
Shapiro envisions extending this framework to include:
- Multiple iteration phases: Incrementally improving each component.
