Solace is a short story that I collaboratively wrote with the text-generation AI GPT-3, created by OpenAI. GPT-3 responds to text by continuing where a given entry ends, attempting to match the form and style of whatever text it has been provided. Solace began during the summer of 2020, and developed through inputting notes, journal entries, and fragments of writing into GPT-3. The texts produced by GPT-3 were then incorporated with the original texts, which were then re-input into GPT-3 and edited together as a story took shape.
